                                 ______

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 30, 2014

  Mr. CANTOR. Mr. Speaker, I stand today to recognize the 
accomplishments of Patient Services Incorporated (PSI) and to 
congratulate the organization on its 25 years of assisting Americans 
obtain the treatments and therapies they need. PSI is a national non-
profit patient assistance charitable organization, headquartered in my 
Congressional district in Midlothian, Virginia. PSI has provided 
assistance to countless Americans in all 50 states and serves as a 
vital safety-net charity to help meet the needs of Americans suffering 
from expensive rare and chronic diseases.
  Through PSI's leadership and determination, our nation's most 
vulnerable seniors are now able to access the treatments and care they 
need with the financial help of non-profit charitable organizations. I 
have visited with the devoted staff at PSI in the past, toured their 
campus, and I am proud to have PSI headquartered in my district.
  PSI was founded out of the professional and personal experience of 
Dana Kuhn, a former Presbyterian Minister from Jackson, Tennessee. 
While employed as a clinical counselor at now VCU Hospital in Richmond, 
Virginia, Dana Kuhn encountered families devastated by chronic 
illnesses. Dr. Kuhn founded PSI in an effort to help this underserved 
community, and since then PSI has focused on finding solutions to the 
challenges facing the chronically ill.
  Today I would like to congratulate PSI on its 25 years of helping 
Americans access medical treatments and therapies. In particular, I 
commend its Founder and President, Dana Kuhn, on his service to our 
country and his fellow man by creating this charitable organization.
