Top Advocacy Issues & Updates
2023 Legislation
From one-off issues to complex and encompassing bills, our advocacy team aims to shape the output of the 113th General Assembly.
Scope of Practice
TMA leads the perennial fight to keep Tennessee physicians supervising patient care and to prevent inappropriate scope of practice expansion by mid-level healthcare providers.
Balance Billing
Protecting physicians’ rights to choose how they practice and get paid appropriately for services they provide without patients suffering surprise medical billing from insurers.
Opioids
Our work spans from Federal and state Prescriber laws, to member-only guidance, including our cautionary Doctor Shopping Guide.
"I have practiced in several different states and have always been a member of national and state associations. None compares to TMA. They do more and get more results for doctors than any organization I have seen."
