Why advocate year-round?
While the Virginia General Assembly is only in session for two months, the House of Medicine needs your advocacy 365 days a year. Hospitals, health plans, and other health care stakeholders work on advancing their agendas year-round. If Virginia’s physicians wait until January to make their interests known, it will be too late. By reaching out to legislators outside of session, you are establishing yourself as their go-to constituent for health care issues. Personal relationships are the key to strong advocacy and give MSV more power and influence at the Capitol.
