Welcome to the Mid-Atlantic Society for Healthcare Strategy and Market Development (MASHSMD - "mash-med"). MASHSMD was formed in 2015 as the result of the merger of the Virginia and Maryland chapters of healthcare PR, marketing, communications and planning professionals. Then, in 2016, we welcomed Pennsylvania to our society. We offer great benefits to our members including regional networking opportunities; timely, valuable educational programming; and a robust awards program to honor the great work done by our members. We are proud to be an official independent chapter affiliate of the Society for Healthcare Strategy & Market Development (SHSMD). MASHSMD Members receive SHSMD member pricing on the conference. Contact your MASHSMD president to ensure your MASHSMD membership is current and to receive a discount code for SHSMD.
