Whilst it is the board focused on medico-political issues, it serves a supporting role in many of the company policy decisions and direction. These doctors serve on several committees including peer management and provider credentialing. They augment and complement the main board.EMC is an accredited Black enterprise as defined by the Broad Based Black economic empowerment Act No. 53 of 2003.
