The Colorado Medical Society (CMS) represents over 6,800 physicians with one common goal: to provide you, the patient, with the highest quality, most cost-effective health care possible. CMS lobbies for health care reform at the Colorado state capitol, works with government agencies to improve health care, and helps create guidelines for care. The willingness of your physician to join with thousands of fellow physicians who strive to maintain "excellence in the profession of medicine" speaks highly of your doctor's dedication to your needs. CMS firmly believes that the power of information can benefit all Coloradans, patient and physician alike. Better informed people means better health care. We encourage you to talk to your doctor and participate in your health care treatment decisions. He or she is the best place for answers to your questions.
