PAMED membership amplifies the physician's voice. Our members can articulate their opinions and thoughts through a number of different outlets.
Dr. John R. Mantione chairs the Board of Trustees and is happy to hear from you. Have a question specific to a board action or how the board operates? Please connect with Dr. Mantione. Any member may submit an official request to the Board of Trustees for an issue to be taken up. That request can be made by sending detailed background and your ask to Dr. Mantione.
The HOD meets annually, and is PAMED's policymaking body. There are several ways for members' voices to Be Heard:
At the Pennsylvania Medical Society House of Delegates resolutions will likely be referred back to the PAMED's Board of Trustees for decision or study. PAMED Members can provide feedback, which will be considered official testimony, on each item. This Information will be shared directly with the Board members when they address this topic. The 2023 resolutions that were referred have all been addressed. Check back after the 2024 HOD for new resolutions to share your voice! Click here for more information on the resolutions:
Pennsylvania Medical Society's (PAMED) Health Diversity Task Force's focus is to create a culture of diversity and inclusion within PAMED and the Commonwealth of PA by providing educational opportunities and resources that improve understanding and awareness of the effects of racism and discrimination in healthcare and create change through policy to carry out the mission of The Society. They welcome your input, thoughts, and questions. Connect with the Chair of the Health Diversity Task Force
