Physicians are encouraged to take advantage of a limited-time opportunity to prioritize their well-being.
The MMA SafeHaven program—a confidential resource designed to help reduce stress, prevent burnout, and reclaim joy in your practice—is available at an 85% discount for MMA members. Click here to subscribe.
There are only 30 discounted spots left, and they must be used by June 30. Use the code MMAMEMBER to secure your spot for just $99 (regularly $655). Benefits begin immediately for the 12-month subscription.
SafeHaven, provided by VITAL WorkLife, offers a full suite of well-being resources including:
Peer coaching on work-life balance, grief support, leadership, and more.
Confidential counseling for you and your family with licensed professionals.
WorkLife Concierge – a 24/7 virtual assistant to help manage your busy life.
Legal and financial resources for budgeting, identity theft, and planning.
Mobile app with well-being assessments, insights, videos, and support tools.
Thanks to the MMA’s advocacy team, Minnesota now has a law protecting clinicians who seek support for burnout and well-being. The Physician Wellness Program legislation, passed in 2024 and led by MMA member and former state senator Kelly Morrison, MD, ensures that medical societies like the MMA can provide confidential support programs.
Participation in SafeHaven is protected—it cannot be disclosed in legal investigations, lawsuits, or to the licensing board unless required by other state law.
If you have questions, please contact the MMA.
