Ask Congress to Expand Access to Pre-Hospital Blood Transfusions

Take action

Expanding access to pre-hospital blood transfusions will save lives. Yet, significant barriers stand in the way, including inadequate Medicare payments for blood used by Emergency Medical Services providers and inconsistent care due to differing state-based scope of practice requirements. But Congress can do something about it. Ask your members of Congress to make long-term reforms that would allow more patients to receive life-saving blood products before reaching a hospital.
