ANNUAL REPORT 11 GLMS Resolutions Passed at the 2017 KMA Annual Meeting GLMS physicians worked with their peers from throughout the state to pass resolutions on topics as diverse as health care coverage for the medically underserved, communi- cation with pharmacies and restrictive covenants. Visit https://joom.ag/bEPL for the complete text. During the Annual Meeting’s House of Delegates session, past GLMS President Dr. Bruce Scott was elected as KMA President-Elect for 2017-2018. Incoming GLMS Vice-Presi- dent Dr. Mona Tailor was nominated for the position of KMA Vice Speaker. She was unanimously approved and elected. Congratulations to both of these hardworking physicians! House Bill 4 Protecting Peer Review was one of several health care bills to pass through the Kentucky legislature in 2018. This progress was possible thanks to the amazing work done by our physicians to meet with state legislators during the Physicians’ Day at the Capitol and the GLMS Legislative Reception at Angel’s Envy on February 1. Thank you to the members of our Policy and Advocacy team for making the state health care bills and KMA Resolutions the successes they were. MAY 2018 25
