2010-11 Medical Advisory Board
The National Center for Medical-Legal Partnership formed a National Medical Advisory Board to cultivate richer healthcare involvement in medical-legal partnership and support current and future physicians and health care leaders in advocacy in a broad range of clinical settings. Board members serve a one-year term.
Board members are recruited from medical-legal partnerships nationwide for their commitment to advocating for vulnerable populations. They represent pediatrics, family medicine, internal medicine, oncology and geriatrics and bring expertise in various components of successful medical-legal partnership. Board members embody a full range of clinical perspectives and are doctors, nurses, social workers and public health leaders.
The Board provides guidance to NCMLP regarding:
- Cultivating new and existing medical involvement across clinical settings;
- Raising the profile of medical-legal partnership nationally;
- Strategic participation in national and local medical and legal conferences; and,
- Innovations in medical-legal partnership.

Medical-Legal Partnerships have been helping families across the country identify and address the underlying factors that affect their health. Working together, doctors and lawyers can help patients find solutions. This is a model that has been shown to save money , and it should be expanded.
