Pamela Zielske, DPC Western Region Advocacy Director
DPC will continue to build on this momentum in the state Medigap arena in the 2026 legislative session. Our state advocacy directors are currently planning on advancing Medigap legislation in Georgia, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, Ohio, and Utah.
How can you help? We are always looking for DPC Patient Ambassadors to share their stories by writing letters to legislators, testifying at committee hearings, and participating in Action Alerts that are emailed to our members.
Building strong relationships with legislators through the legislative process is how DPC is able to achieve success and improve the quality of life for its members and their families.
