ASH Tools and Resources for Clinicians T here are many challenges facing hematology practices today. ASH understands that it is difficult to stay current on the changes occurring in the tumultuous health-care environment - health reform, reimbursement changes, new policies, and new requirements for practices. On a daily basis, the Society strives to help practitioners by continuously strategizing ways to protect and improve reimbursement, to provide tools to improve quality of care for patients, and to improve resources for hematology practices. This article highlights some of the tools and resources currently available for clinicians. ASH Practice Partnership ASH recently launched an exciting new group - the ASH Practice Partnership or APP - to help increase the voice of practicing hematologists and elevate practice-related issues within the Society. The ideal candidate for the APP is an ASH member who is interested in hematology care issues, improving quality of care, engaging in new health-care delivery systems, and practice management issues. APP members receive T:7" a variety of benefits, some of which include helping to shape ASH's policies and programs, networking opportunities, early access to ASH products such as pocket guides, and discounts for ASH programs. Help ASH ensure every state in the United States is represented in the APP.
