House of Delegates (HOD)

The HOD is the policymaking body of the MMS. Members of the MMS HOD serve as an important communications, policy, and membership link between the MMS and grassroots physicians. Each delegate is a key source of information on policies, activities, and programs of the MMS. The HOD meets twice a year — in the spring and fall — for two days.
