The Society for Participatory Medicine is a 501(c) (3)
A not-for-profit organization devoted to promoting the concept of participatory medicine, a movement
in which networked patients shift from being mere passengers to responsible drivers of their health,
and in which providers encourage and value them as full partners. The Society seeks to bring together
all of the stakeholders in healthcare (patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, payers, and
others) to encourage collaboration, communication and cooperation that will foster provider/patient
engagement, patient empowerment and education.
