Get Involved on a Reference Committee!
We have a few remaining openings on reference committees for the Interim (and Annual) Meetings. Reference committees review business and online testimony for items, meet (virtually) to deliberate, and report to the HOD will recommendations. The time commitment
is limited and schedule-friendly as all prep and the deliberations meeting is online. Interested? Please contact houseofdelegates@mms.org. Thank you!
Online Reference Committee Testimony Site (Typed Testimony or Video/Audio Upload)
Beginning Monday, October 18, members can testify online at https://www.massmed.org/hodcommunity/home. This online site serves as the only method
for reference committee testimony for this virtual Interim Meeting. Members can type in testimony or upload a video/audio file. Please see complete details on the site. Please review the site regularly. Quick Reference Guides are available for written
testimony and video/audio testimony.
The site closes Tuesday, November 9, 6:00 p.m., but static comments will remain for viewing.
Reference Committee Reports
Reference Committee reports are now available.
Extractions/Amendment Process and Forms
Important: Your speakers request advance notice of extractions/amendments from delegates by Thursday, December 2, 5:00 p.m., via email to: houseofdelegates@mms.org. Your email
