Bexar County Medical Society

Description

• Did you know the Bexar County Medical Society (BCMS) plans and organizes health care in San Antonio? The Medical Society is behind most of San Antonio's iconic medical institutions: The South Texas Medical Center, the UT Health Science Center, the Cancer Therapy and Research Center, the South Texas Blood and Tissue Center, and others. The Medical Society is the place where doctors meet to plan and organize health care. Should a natural disaster, such as an epidemic or the spread of a virus like Zika or Ebola, arise, Medical Society doctors would be called upon to organize how the situation would be handled. They would answer questions like I just visited a friend who is affected by the Zika virus. What should I do? Also, the Medical Society works with the Texas Medical Association to give away helmets to less fortunate children, with the BCMS Alliance to immunize children, with its own foundation to raise money for scholarships to encourage San Antonio students to enter the field of medicine to combat the shortage of doctors to handle Bexar County's exploding growth. Founded in 1853, the Medical Society has 4,700+ physician members serving the individuals and families of our community. Members include private practice and employed physicians, medical students, physician residents and military physicians--all serving the residents of Bexar County, Texas. Your doctor is probably a member of the Bexar County Medical Society. You can also meet member doctors at health fairs and expos held across the county to treat, diagnose and prescribe medications for residents who do not have or cannot afford insurance. The Societys mission is to serve and represent member physicians in providing quality healthcare for their patients and the public. In addition, the Medical Society provides the forum for doctors to work together to address healthcare issues and to advocate for quality patient/doctor relationships.
