Proposed Health Regulations Concerning Dentists: A Call for Congressional Support, 1989-10-04

Item — Box: 170, Folder: 18

Identifier: CAC_CC_017_3_170_18_0003

Staff Only

Dr. Richard L. Johnson wrote to Congressman Glenn English expressing concern about proposed health regulations by OSHA that would impact dentists. Johnson believes the regulations are excessive and costly, and unnecessary given the effective infection control guidelines already in place. He outlines specific requirements in the proposal that are inappropriate for dental offices and argues that they would not significantly increase employee protection but would inflate the cost of dental care. Johnson requests English's support in opposing these regulations.
