Advocacy

MOCMS champions the causes that matter most to physicians and their patients. We actively participate in state and national legislative processes to influence policies that positively impact the medical profession and healthcare delivery. Through our advocacy efforts, we create a more favorable environment for medical practice and enhance patient care.

Contributions

MOCMS is dedicated to supporting organizations that advance healthcare education and services within our community. We actively foster a healthier community by promoting initiatives that enhance medical knowledge and improve patient care. A key example is our Healthy Schools Grant program, which provides grants to local schools for K-12 students. This program focuses on nutrition, physical activity, mental health, and overall well-being, aiming to instill lifelong healthy habits in students.
