Again this year, all KMS members will have the opportunity to vote on the election of the physicians who will lead our organization. Previously, only those physicians who attended the House of Delegates meeting as a delegate had the opportunity to vote. We are excited about this change and look forward to enhanced member engagement in this most-important process.

This is the fourth year of a planned transition to a new structure in which all KMS members are eligible to vote on the election of physicians who will lead our organization. It has been the express plan of the Future Directions Task Force and the Nominating Committee during this transition to allow the current officers to retain their positions until the transition period is completed. Additionally, it was planned that Trustees who were elected in 2014 would be able to run unopposed in this election. 

The ballot below is customized based on your KMS Trustee District & county medical society. We appreciate your participation and look forward to receiving your completed ballot.

If you have questions about the election process, please contact the KMS office at 800.332.0156.
