In 2019, the Medical Association drafted and supported, and will be supporting again in 2020, specific “truth in advertising” legislation in Alabama to prohibit misleading health care advertising and require all licensed health professionals to clearly communicate their credentials to patients. These are critical elements to increasing patient education.
Thanks to those who’ve already submitted examples of health care advertising in Alabama that is misleading. To reinforce the need for this legislation, the Association is asking all its members to send examples of misleading health care advertising anywhere they see it.
