The Advisory Committee on Group Practice Physicians
The Advisory Committee on Group Practice Physicians advises the AMA Board of Trustees on policy matters relating to group and faculty practices. The committee consists of representatives from 11 group and faculty practices throughout the United States. The Committee meets two times each year to discuss policy matters and activities that bear directly on group and faculty practice plan physicians. Any communications to the committee can be e-mailed to carrie.waller@ama-assn.org.
