Joint Letter: Support of S.669 and Opposition to S.44 and S.45
Date: September 10, 2025

The South Carolina Medical Association and the other undersigned organizations, representing the voice of physicians across the state of South Carolina who are employed by health systems and working in private practice, write to strongly support S.669 and oppose S.44 and S.45. In deciding which of these bills to support, you must answer the very basic question - whether you believe there is any value to having a physician involved in your healthcare.
