MSSNY Physician Advocacy Town Hall: Urgent Legislation that Will Impact You
Join Us on Wednesday, 1/11 @ 6:30 pm
New York physicians are invited to attend a short virtual meeting with the Medical Society of the State of New York (MSSNY) on new state legislation that will impact you and your patients.
MSSNY won numerous victories that protect your ability to provide needed patient care and help fight back against health insurer abuse. But the legislature also passed a well-meaning but extremely problematic bill that could very well increase medical malpractice premiums by 40%, despite opposition from MSSNY, specialty societies, hospitals, businesses, insurers, cities and counties. We must urge the Governor to veto the bill before she acts on it in the coming weeks.
Please take the opportunity to learn more about these many issues. Come join the fight. Register here.
