Sharing Concerns about the Pandemic's Impact on Physician Well-Being in Ohio

 


OSMA & Medical Association Coalition (MAC) send letter to the Medical Board—specifically asking for several action steps


Physician well-being has been a significant concern over the past several years, and the COVID-19 pandemic has now created many additional challenges—regardless of whether a private practice setting or a large hospital system.

At its September meeting held earlier this week, the SMBO acknowledged receipt of the communication and committed to address these concerns moving forward. The OSMA and MAC were encouraged by this response and look forward to continuing the dialogue. This provides yet another example of the impact physicians can have when we join together in Ohio to advocate for the profession.
