Sign up today to be a Leader for Medicine and Patients

Being a physician automatically puts you in a position to be a leader in the view of your patients and the public, especially in the rural community. Patients look to their physicians for answers to health questions, help with insurance/billing, legislative advice on voting, disease prevention and more.

Are you ready to be that leader?

KMA has partnered with Butler University to help members get the leadership training they will need to be leaders in their communities through the Kentucky Physicians Leadership Institute (KPLI). This year, KMA will offer 15 applicants the broad leadership training and skills needed to walk into that role.

Right now, a few spots are still open for the KPLI program.

Here is an overview of this important program:
