2010 Harris Award Nominations Being Accepted
CCME is currently accepting nominations for the 2010 Harris Memorial Award in honor of the life and memory of its founding member T. Reginald Harris, MD.
Presented annually in conjunction with the fall meeting of the North Carolina Medical Society, a plaque and $2,500 monetary prize are given to a North Carolina physician for outstanding achievements in the areas of health care quality and service to the medical community.
"It is truly fitting that we continue bestowing this award to a deserving physician in honor of Dr. Harris," said John B. Smith, Jr., MD, CMD, board president of CCME. "Dr. Harris devoted his career to improving the quality of health care for people with Medicare and provided decades of service to the medical community through the North Carolina Medical Society and the American Medical Association. He was a physician's physician. He was absolutely dedicated to quality patient care."
Please submit your nomination form before Monday, September 20, 2010.
