Conference Coverage

It's been a big year for medicine, and the next promises to be just as significant. Although health system reform was sorely needed, there are still components that need to be addressed, not the least of which is the flawed Medicare payment formula. The new AMA president, Dr. Cecil Wilson, who is an internist from Winter Park, Florida, discusses how the AMA will work to improve the healthcare system and increase patient access to care in the coming year. Dr. Wilson also stresses the need for physicians to become more involved in organized medicine and as AMA members. Join host Dr. John Armstrong for ReachMD's continuing coverage of the AMA House of Delegates meeting.
