Urgent Practice Data Survey
An NCMGMA, NCMS and Curi Collaboration

Monday, April 20, 2020

NCMGMA, NCMS, and Curi are working together to gather vital practice information from administrators and clinicians across North Carolina relative to the COVID-19 crisis. To kick off this effort, we are sending a brief e-survey each week. We ask that you please complete this survey when you receive it in your inbox.

TAKE THE SURVEY NOW!

About the NCMGMA, NCMS and Curi Survey

Each week on Monday, the same set of questions will be sent to your inbox. The idea is to capture weekly snapshots of North Carolina’s healthcare practices as we move through the coronavirus pandemic. The information and data you share will be compiled and used anonymously to better understand the most acute and immediate needs, and to establish any trends to inform our policymakers on behalf of the physicians, PAs, practice administrators and the patients of North Carolina.

We know this is a stressful and uncertain time, but by taking less than 5 minutes each week to complete this survey, you are allowing us to better respond to and represent your needs. Please click the link above to take this short survey and help us work together to battle back against this healthcare crisis.

Join the Weekly Survey E-list
If you aren’t already on the e-list and would like to be added, please email the NCMGMA offices at info@ncmgm.org and we will put you on the list.

Thank you for your time and for your commitment to your communities. We’re in this together and are proud to support you and your practice through this tumultuous season.
