"The Arkansas Medical Society appreciates the commitment of our state’s leaders to protecting Arkansans as they determine the path forward. Physicians across Arkansas share this commitment and support the goal of a program that delivers high-quality patient care while using taxpayer resources responsibly.

Arkansas physicians stand ready to collaborate and will remain actively engaged at the table as this important work continues." - Carl Vogelpohl, AMS Executive Director
