I am sorry if I missed this somewhere but am having a hard time finding information. I noticed that this has shown up on my profile page as something that our names could be given to; it automatically checked "yes" unless changed to "no" on my profile page. I just happen to come across this and don't understand what it is.

To make a more informed decision, what is this Society of Participatory Medicine?

Thanks in advance for any replies and info.

I haven't edited my details in a while, but you're right, it's there, and it's set to yes my default.

A little web searching... Society for Participatory Medicine

I've browsed their site and I'm still confused. :/
Thanks for this!

Evidently it's a patient advocacy and education organization.

What is disturbing is that I don't recall any posting or information from PC stating that this would be a default opt-in on our profiles- that should be perfectly clear. But it's not.
Thanks for this!

Sorry, that was something we haven't yet implemented but was accidentally shown... a free 1 year membership in this advocacy organization for empowered patients.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
