Residents & Fellows
Founded in 1868, the Nebraska Medical Association’s mission is “Advocating for physicians and the health of all Nebraskans.”
So, what does that mean to you? Ensuring that you can focus on what you do best . . . practice medicine.
Membership in the NMA unifies the voices of Nebraska physicians. As physicians united, the NMA is able to accomplish things individual physicians cannot do on their own. As medicine changes and the medical work environment evolves, no single organization in Nebraska has as much potential to play a leading role in shaping the future of the practice of medicine.
- The NMA is among the most effective lobbying organization working with the Legislature providing a physician voice in the development of health policy. Through grass-roots lobbying, the NMA has established policies which reflect the real-world views and concerns of physicians practicing, or in training, today.
- A major reason why so many physicians believe Nebraska is such a good place to practice is the Nebraska Medical Liability Act.This act limits a physician’s professional liability exposure and in turn helps keep professional liability insurance premiums low. It was the work of the NMA to have this statute passed in 1976.
Your membership helps to unify the voices of Nebraska physicians.The more members, the more powerful our voice is and the more that can be accomplished. Together, we can make a difference.
