The Young Physician Society (YPS) comprises ISMA physician members younger than 40 or who have completed residency and fellowship training within the past five years. YPS seeks to strengthen the value of ISMA membership for young physicians by:
  • Enhancing young physicians’ practice of medicine by assisting with the transition to practice, legal resources, physician wellness and more.
  • Advocating for issues of importance to young physicians by facilitating young physicians’ participation in policy making and other activities of the ISMA.
  • Promoting young physician leadership by providing leadership education and opportunities, as well as other activities and resources relevant to young physicians.
  • Keeping YPS members informed on issues impacting physicians at the beginning of their professional practice though targeted communications, newsletters and meetings.
