Freedom for Doctors
    AND Patients

Join the Doctor Patient Medical Association


For Medical Professionals

You already know that your ability to practice medicine and treat patients is under attack.

The passage of Patient Protection and Affordable Care (PPACA) puts in place mechanisms that will lead to rationing of treatment, increase dependency on government reimbursements, mandates electronic health records and seeks to further displace private health coverage.  Add to that, discussions surrounding Medicare payment rates, and the most recent announcement that CMS is increasing the number of Recovery Audit Contractors (RACs).

We know there are several associations that you could support. What makes DPMA unique? We believe that the battle for medical freedom is about more than just repealing the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). We know that there are many threats to your professional survival and independence, like inequitable hospital contracts, politically-motivated peer review, unjust licensure actions and excessive recertification requirements.

Medical professionals need an association that sees the big picture and has the leadership, organization and policy experience to make change happen. And, we're bringing the patients on board through the Patient Power Alliance to support you in the fight.

Membership is open to physicians and medical professionals in all specialties and practices.*
