ACVP is Working with Alliances
The ACVP is always interested in working with other organizations to collectively strengthen the quality of healthcare while simultaneously ensuring our members' contribution to healthcare is fairly recognized.
Towards this end, we have been working with the American Society of Radiologic Technology (ASRT) and others in supporting the Consumer Assurance and Radiologic Excellence (CARE) Act. This legislation will protect patients and workers from harmful radiation.
What has been critical in our efforts in developing this legislation is the continued work of the professional working with elements of radiology in the cath lab. We have demonstrated that the invasive professional has radiologic training and this has been validated by testing. Therefore, he/she should be able to continue to work freely in the domain for which he/she was trained.
