The Massachusetts Medical
Society (MMS) is the statewide professional association for physicians and
medical students, supporting 25,000 members. We are dedicated to educating and
advocating for the physicians of Massachusetts and patients locally and
nationally. A leadership voice in health care, the MMS contributes physician
and patient perspectives to influence health-related legislation at the state
and federal levels, works in support of public health, provides expert advice
on physician practice management, and addresses issues of physician well-being.
Under the auspices of the NEJM Group,
the MMS extends our mission globally by advancing medical knowledge from
research to patient care through the New England Journal of Medicine, NEJM
Catalyst, and the NEJM Journal Watch family of specialty publications, and through
our education products for health care professionals: NEJM Knowledge+, NEJM
Resident 360, and our accredited and comprehensive continuing medical education
programs.
