As part of its campaign to help Texas physicians survive and thrive in the new health care environment, TMA offers Health Reform School. Not only will you learn how the new health system reform law affects you and your practice, but also you will earn continuing medical education (CME) credit for your time.

"Just like our patients, our member physicians are uncertain about what's in the new law and what it means to their practices," said TMA President Susan Rudd Bailey, MD. "It's our responsibility to bring them the facts as we know them and the implications as we see them."

There are two ways you can participate in TMA's Health Reform School: Have your county medical society schedule the event in your community or take the course online. To take the course online, go to the Health System Reform Action Center on the TMA website. The hour-long online session features presentations from – and a question-and-answer session with – Dr. Bailey, TMA Council on Legislation Chair Dan McCoy, MD, and TMA staff experts.
