Call to Action from MDSA President Erin Gardner, MD
RSVP Today for MDSA Healthy Skin Day & Tort Reform Rally! Date: Wednesday, March 5th, 2014 Time: 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM Organization: Missouri Dermatological Society Association & Missouri Show-Me Tort Reform Coalition Call 314-275-0884 or Email Becky Green at bgreen@gogateway.org This year, the Missouri Dermatological Society Association (MDSA) will be hosting our Annual Healthy Skin Day on the same day as the White Coat Tort Reform Rally. Therefore, in addition to providing our free skin cancer screening service to lawmakers and their staff, dermatologists will have the opportunity to engage with physicians around the state as we advocate for medical malpractice reform legislation. Not only is this an important day to represent the dermatology specialty, this is an important day to advocate for patient safety at a time when health care issues are front and center in the state legislature. The MDSA lobbyists at the Gate Way Group will host members throughout the day and set up meetings with your local legislators.
