Why join? Education. Advocacy. Support.

Education

We believe in lifelong learning and making it simple for our members.

    • Pain & Addiction Summit

    • Medical Legal Summit

    • Recognizing and Responding to Suspected Child Abuse

  • Easy-to-Use, Online PAMED CME Courses – You’ll find the CMEs you need to renew your license.

  • The Dose – PAMED’s weekly e-newsletter.

Advocacy

We believe that every physician’s voice should be heard.
  • Advocacy with lawmakers in Harrisburg to ensure commonsense, patient-centered legislation that maintains your clinical autonomy.

  • Advocacy with state agencies to ensure that regulations and unnecessary red tape don’t get in the way of patient care.

  • Advocacy with insurers to protect patient outcomes and your bottom line.

  • Advocacy with the courts to defend your rights, including medical liability protections.

Support

We believe physicians should spend more time with patients and less on administrative tasks.
  • Practice Support – If you’re baffled by a Medicare or commercial insurer policy or you are struggling to get answers on claims denials, reach out to our Practice Support team for personalized help.

  • Legal Resource Center – PAMED can help members find resources to address a variety of health-law related questions.

  • Quick Consult Fact Sheets – When a new health care law or regulation is set to take effect, you can count on PAMED’s Quick Consults to explain what the requirements mean for you.
