Join Us for MSSNY’s Lobby Day on March 14th, 2023
In her state of the state address this week, Governor Hochul laid out a bold vision for the future of health care in New York. She articulated support for several measures to improve New York’s health care infrastructure, such as increasing Medicaid reimbursement for primary care and reproductive health care providers, strengthening New York’s Essential Plan, and making important investments to improve care and coverage for New Yorkers’ mental health care needs. However, she also indicated support for problematic measures, such as expanding the scope of practice for various non-physicians to address health care shortages rather than take steps to address New York’s difficult practice environment, which leads to “burnout” and physicians moving to other states.
The future of health care in New York is being decided, and it’s more important than ever that leaders in Albany listen to the concerns of physicians. To make their voices heard, physicians should plan to attend MSSNY’s annual Physician Advocacy Day on Tuesday, March 14th. Register now!
For the first time since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, MSSNY’s Lobby Day will be held in person. It will take place at the Empire State Plaza (The Egg) in Albany from 7:45-11:00 am. Physicians and their allies will hear from legislative leaders in the morning, and in the afternoon, they will meet with their respective legislators in meetings organized by county medical societies. We urge all physicians to join their colleagues in advocacy to protect access to quality care for their patients!
