The MMA supports physicians and patients through advocacy on crucial issues affecting the health of Minnesotans and the practice of medicine.
2023 Legislative Priorities
Limit Mid-Year Formulary Changes
Stop insurers and pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) from forcing a patient to change drugs mid-contract year once they begin a drug therapy.
Increase patient safety by encouraging adoption of the CANDOR (Communication and Optimal Resolution) model following an adverse event.
Establish a statewide POLST registry to ensure a patient’s care decisions are followed and easily accessible by EMS and other providers.
Audio-Only Telehealth Services
Extend payment and coverage for audio-only telehealth services to ensure access to those who need it.
Recuperative Care for Those Experiencing Homelessness
Expand Medical Assistance (MA) coverage to include recuperative care for Minnesotans experiencing homelessness.
