Regulatory Education and Action for Patients (REAP)

REAP is an umbrella coalition comprised of 52 patient advocacy groups whose mission is to communicate the challenges patients face in accessing care to Federal and State policymakers. REAP’s collective voice assures a wide range of patient concerns are considered in policy development to maximize care access and improved outcomes as well as minimize unintended consequences upon implementation. REAP, through its member entities, contributes information and perspectives regarding important health care decisions to a degree that has not been possible heretofore by health care advocacy groups in the regulatory arena.
