IPMA meets with ISMS
Members of the IPMA Executive Council had a very informative and productive meeting with the members of the Illinois State Medical Association Legislative team. The call arranged by IPMA Lobbyist Matt O’Shea offered an opportunity to remind ISMS staff of the podiatric training and education. We reminded them of our desire to work more closely with the ISMS on upcoming legislation.
When asked which of the state specialty groups the ISMS worked with the most, they shared we were the top of the list.
The key take-away from the meeting, led by IPMA Secretary and Legislative Chair, Thomas Nordquist, DPM and President Ashley Lee, DPM was the common goal to improve patient care and ensure each patient has access to the right medical professional trained to best care for their needs.
Our next steps will be to meet with the ISMS Government Affairs Committee and/or the Council on Education and Health Work Force to ensure they are aware and up to date on podiatric schooling and training. If you know a member of either committee, please contact our Executive Director, Kristy Radcliffe at kradcliffe@ipma.net.
Connections help build bridges of understanding.
