MSSNY Physician Advocacy Town Hall: Urgent Legislation that Will Impact You
Wednesday, January 11 at 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 Wrongful Death bill before she acts on it in the coming weeks.
Please take the opportunity to join us TONIGHT to learn more about these many issues.
We encourage you to call Governor Hochul to urge her to veto the Wrongful Death bill on Wednesday, January 11, 2023 or as soon as possible afterward. Call 518-474-8390 and press option 3. Then press option 1 to leave a voicemail or option 2 to speak with an operator.
