Members of the Snohomish County Medical Society,

We’re pleased to announce the launch of the Snohomish County Medical Society’s eDirectory! This eDirectory is the long awaited and renovated replacement for the SCMS printed publication which was retired in 2016.

Advertising in the digital realm allows for ease of artistic adjustments and increased ad exposure. To take advantage of this highly successful and cost-effective marketing opportunity, contact me directly using the information below.

The Snohomish County Medical Society trustees have created a scholarship/grant for residents in Snohomish county. SCMS will award a scholarship recipient $2,500.00 to go towards a residents community project.

The guidelines for the scholarship and grant are that the resident be in good standing within their program and a SCMS resident member. The essay portion of the scholarship asks each resident “Why they chose to be a physician” and then explain their residency community project. The grant is for $2,500.00 and due March 30, 2020. The recipient will be announced on April 10, 2020. Below are the grant guidelines for the community project each resident must discuss:

Residency Community Project Grant Guidelines

1. Improve community Health Literacy and patient advocacy
2. Increase the use of telemedicine for community medical practices
3. Improve physician participation in the Accountable Communities of Health
4. Address community and health care priority for public health
5. Strengthen the doctor-patient relationship in health care delivery
6. Review the needs and opportunities for charitable care.
7. Define the health care needs of the non-citizen component of our population
