Encourage patients to protect their medical care
Considering the sometimes volatile and overwhelming environment of the Maryland health care system, it can be difficult to find time to be an advocate for your patients in Annapolis.  In order to make sure the Maryland General Assembly is caring for your patients as much as you do, you need to educate and involve your patients to be advocates.
Alert Service is Available to Members and Patients
With this in mind, MedChi wants to help you teach your patients how to protect their medical care by staying alert and involved by using the MedChi Legislative Action Center and MedChi Action E-List.  These two powerful services we make available to our member physicians is also available to patients.

The MedChi Legislative Action Center will keep you and your patients informed and in contact with all state representatives and federal representatives, while the Action E-List alerts them through e-mail to contact their representatives when their opinion is needed most.
Flyer Available for Patients, Friends and Family
"The Patient's Have Rights, Too" flyer is brief and simple.  The flyer invites patients to get involved legislatively to protect their health care by using the MedChi Legislative Action Center and joining the Action E-List.
