The ACR CAC Network was developed to encourage communication and coordination among all radiology CAC representatives. The ACR is committed to providing as much assistance as possible to each CAC representative. In September 1999, the ACR Council passed Resolution 42, which called for the development of a state model for coordination and communication of local CAC activities. In addition, Resolution 42 encouraged the development of local subspecialty advisory panels to further aid local CAC members in the review of local Medicare policies. Adoption of the ACR CAC Networks and the model by the state chapters created a better organized and more effective mechanism for dealing with local Medicare issues.

Members in training and members in training in physics may organize as a section governed by its own constitution and bylaws, subject to the approval of the Executive Committee.
