We represent physicians practicing in Anoka, Carver, Hennepin, Scott and Western Dakota counties. We are the largest county medical society in Minnesota and have been operating for over 150 years.
What We Do
Hennepin Medical Society serves as your local voice on health care legislation, public policy initiatives, and scope of practice issues. We offer the framework for setting Minnesota Medical Association policy in the best interest of physicians. It is our goal to engage physicians in a meaningful way and to help them advocate for the rights of practicing physicians. |
Over 135 years old, Ramsey Medical Society (RMS) is the East Metro voice for physicians who are also members of the Minnesota Medical Association (MMA). We represent more than 1,600 physicians, medical residents and medical students.
Our organization is member driven. We have a diverse board of directors representing all medical specialties. Our five councils, our Foundation, and our practice services subsidiary are active, effective and provide an opportunity for our members to become engaged in the current issues facing medicine.
What We Do
RMS serves as your local voice on health care legislation, public policy, public health, and scope of practice issues. We offer the framework for setting MMA policy in the best interest of RMS physicians. This is accomplished through the participation of 25 RMS delegates in the MMA House of Delegates and the submission of resolutions at the MMA Annual Meeting. RMS works toward resolving contracting hassles and informing our members during managed care conflicts. We serve as your advocates and liaison to the Legislature and the Congress, state agencies, coalitions, and health-interest groups. We offer our members avenues for getting involved with public and community health initiatives. |
