ACR Resident Advocacy Webinar Educates Newest Physicians to Amplify Radiology’s Voice

The American College of Radiology® (ACR®) will bring the College’s resident advocacy webinar to radiology residency programs at Johns Hopkins and the University of Maryland Medical System in September. During the webinar, residents will learn how to become involved advocates for patients and the profession; the webinar is one hour to best accommodate residents’ busy schedules.

Dillon Harp, ACR Senior State Government Relations Specialist will be joined by the former chair of ACR’s State Government Relations Committee, Loralie Ma, MD, PhD, FACR, as they both talk about why physician led advocacy is so important and how to get involved

Program directors and state radiological society chapter leaders are encouraged to contact Dillon Harp, ACR Senior State Government Relations Specialist, to bring a resident advocacy webinar to their residents as well.
