Physicians belonging to medical societies traditionally met on Tuesday evenings to discuss current health care issues. Our research indicates that more than 90 percent of all medical societies met at this time - a time during the week that most physicians were free. Over the last two decades, however, physician practices have changed dramatically. Medical society meetings on Tuesdays, as well as their monthly magazines and bulletins, have become less frequent and in many instances have disappeared. Medical Tuesday brings the latest private practice issues to a network of physicians and health care professionals on alternate Tuesdays via electronic mail.
