About Us
The Montana Medical Association is a vehicle to represent Montana Physicians upon important issues that concern them. You can make a difference by becoming a member of the MMA and voicing your opinion. The MMA, as an organization, is charged by its members to represent all Montana physicians. The MMA endeavors to understand and promote the interests of physicians in all medical specialtie

s, in all venues. Issues involved in the provision of medical care are common to those physicians who are employed by entities such as clinics or hospitals as well as those who are in private practice. Preservation of the physician/patient relationship and patient choice of provider.
2. Promotion of ethical and professional behavior among physicians.
3. Promotion of the health and wellbeing of the populace of Montana.
4. Promotion of evidence-based health care practice and delivery.
5. Promotion of a legislative and regulatory environment that will enhance and not limit or impede priorities 1-4 above.
6. Collaborative effort with other health care entities and organizations to promote programs that support the priorities of the MMA. While recognizing that increased economic pressures and complex issues of practice management have driven many physicians into employed relationships, this does not diminish and may even increase the importance of the MMA. The MMA will continue to represent all physicians in their professional needs, including employment based issues.

During the 2025 MT Legislative Session, MMA's bill SB 497, which provides laws to help address health professional burnout, was passed and put into effect immediately.
We have a ways to go to bring the burnout percentage down, but the passage of this bill preserves privacy and confidentiality when receiving physical or mental health services, clarifies reporting requirements to provide confidentiality, and it offers protection and clear direction to those who provide the services, and protects information.
