Advocacy for better emergency care
TAFEC believes licensed freestanding emergency centers should have a strong voice when legislation and healthcare regulations affecting emergency care are considered throughout Texas.

Complete Care proudly supports the advocacy efforts of both organizations to help ensure patients continue to have access to safe, high-quality emergency medical care through appropriately licensed freestanding emergency centers.

Your voice can help give seniors, veterans, and other Medicare beneficiaries greater choice in where they receive emergency care.
