Physicians and physicians-in-training from across the state will gather again in-person at the state Capitol on February 8, to advocate on behalf of medicine.
The annual get-together, which has been held virtually the last two years, is now referred to as Physicians’ Day at the Capitol. It will include a review of top priorities and tips on how to interact effectively with elected officials.
The MMA is partnering with several specialty societies and Zumbro Valley Medical Society to promote the event including the Minnesota Academy of Family Physicians; the Minnesota Academy of Ophthalmology; the Minnesota Chapter, American College of Cardiology; the Minnesota Chapter, American College of Emergency Physicians; the Minnesota Chapter, American College of Physicians; the Minnesota Osteopathic Medical Society; and the Minnesota Psychiatric Society.
“The more white coats we get to the Capitol and in meetings with legislators, the louder our voice,” said MMA President Will Nicholson, MD. “Now more than ever, physicians need to be meeting with representatives and senators to continue advocating for the practice of medicine and their patients.”
