Dear MedChi Members and Maryland Physicians:
One of MedChi's first actions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic was to open all services and resources to every Maryland physician, regardless of membership status. We wanted to ensure that you have all the information and support you needed to address this public health crisis. This weekly update is one example of what we have provided to all physicians, and we know that the critical updates provided in this newsletter have meant a great deal to you, your colleagues, and your medical practice.
As your resource and your advocate, we have also provided:
- relief fund disbursement consulting
- telehealth implementation consulting and grant administration
- liability protection advocacy
- scope of practice expansion advocacy
- PPP consulting
- COVID testing scheduling
- extensive and comprehensive CME programming
- no-cost CME accreditation for MDH's regular all-physician COVID update calls
- expanded physician health and wellbeing services
-
and much, much more.
Open access for nonmembers will end on January 1, 2021. To ensure that you can continue to access our services, and to support our advocacy on behalf of all physicians, we encourage all nonmembers to join today.
Here's what we want you to know this week:
-
Register here for today's Maryland Department of Health all-physician call at 5:00 pm.
