Physicians for Responsible
Negotiation (PRN) is a new breed of labor organization. PRN is a
national negotiating organization for employed physicians and
eligible medical residents, aimed at giving you the collective voice
you need to advocate aggressively for you and your patients in
today's challenging health care environment.
A Professional Alternative
You care about your patients.
But, too often, outside forces care only for profits. The role of
the physician as a patient advocate has been eroded. Quality care
and the ability of physicians to make the best medical decisions for
their patient have been severely compromised. With the full
protections of federal law, PRN will negotiate with employers on
behalf of its physician members. PRN gives you--America's
physicians--the leverage you need to fight for patient and physician
rights.
A Professional
Response
PRN is the only national,
independent labor organization created specifically for physicians.
PRN understands the shared values of the physician community and is
committed to protecting medicine's high standards of ethics and
professionalism.
Physicians who choose to join
PRN agree not to strike or withhold essential medical services. PRN
can restore the integrity of the patient-physician relationship. It
can ensure the quality and integrity of patient care, reinforce
physicians' historic role as patient advocate, and make it
economically viable for physicians to practice quality medicine.
