Withe the passage of House Bill 47 in the 2021 Legislative Session, New Mexico became the 11th jurisdiction to allow medical aid in dying. NMMS held a two-part series on our Noon-Zoom program, offering a legal analysis of the Act on May 27th https://youtu.be/JdSomvuVl1c and a clinician panel on June 3rd https://youtu.be/OQWbALw9q5s, When viewing the recordings, please “Subscribe” to the New Mexico Medical Society youtube channel so that you will have access to future Noon-Zoom educational offerings. Contact the NMMS office at info@nmms.org to request materials to obtain continuing medical education credits.
A new not-for-profit, End of Life Options New Mexico, was recently created and provides resources for patients and clinicians alike.
