Sponsored by the National Association of Children’s Hospitals (N.A.C.H.), the public policy affiliate of the National Association of Children’s Hospitals and Related Institutions (NACHRI), the annual event spotlighted the importance of protecting the financial viability of children’s hospitals and ensuring that children’s hospitals across the country can continue serving a critical role in children’s healthcare.  Kendall Lee, Government Relations and Advocacy Coordinator, and Laura P. Allen with the hospital’s Advocacy Committee met with representatives from the offices of Sen. Mark Warner and Reps. Bobby Scott, Eric Cantor and Randy Forbes during their visit.
