Join hundreds of physician leaders and medical society staff at the start of the year and: 

  • Hear from national experts on the critical issues impacting medicine at the state level 
  • Strategize with advocacy leaders on state legislative and regulatory priorities 
  • Network with other physician leaders and colleagues from across the country 

Stay tuned for a full agenda, but topics will include: 

  • Prior authorization 
  • Scope of practice 
  • Physician wellness 
  • And more.
