First Tuesdays

Feb. First Tuesdays now in the books

The first ‘First Tuesdays’ of the 86th Legislative Session took place on Feb. 5. Physicians, BCMS Alliance members and students participated in several meetings with legislators and staff. A number of topics were discussed, including: Graduate medical education (GME); physician loan repayment; Medicaid reimbursement; maternal mortality and telemedicine.

The next First Tuesdays is on March 5. We encourage all our members to get involved and participate in at least one First Tuesday this session. To register, please visit:  www.texmed.org/FirstTuesdays
