Upcoming events

    • May 07, 2025
    • 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM
    • NYS Capitol and Legislative Offices - Albany, NY
    Register

    As a plastic surgeon and NYSSPS member, you have the experience, knowledge and ideas to inform lawmakers before they craft and vote on public policy matters affecting the practice of medicine and the care your patients receive. Register today for the opportunity to meet with key policymakers and members of the NYS legislature.

    This year, the Society will focus its efforts on the following:

    • Truth in Advertising: New York patients deserve to know who provides their health care and exactly what their health care providers are qualified and licensed to diagnose, prescribe and treat. Healthcare professional transparency requires that advertisements for health care services identify the type of license and qualifications held by a healthcare practitioner.

    • Gold Card Bill/Prior Authorization Reform: Managing prior authorization of physicians and procedures, approved 90% of the time, improves time and resources spent on patient access and care.

    The day will begin with a legislative briefing of the issues and “asks” as well as a discussion on how to maintain and advance relationships with lawmakers.

    Why Advocate?

    • Advocacy ensures issues affecting plastic surgeons and patients are recognized
    • If you don’t have a seat at the table, you’re on the menu 
    • Regardless of your politics, the consequences of state policy affect your daily practice and cannot be ignored
