AMA members: Discuss key advocacy topics in new online forum
Learn about the AMA's national advocacy efforts and share your thoughts on these issues in the new members-only Advocacy Forum (login required).
Open to AMA members only, the forum gives AMA physician and student members an opportunity to comment on pending federal legislation that will impact the practice of medicine. The forum provides a secure environment for discussion on issues such as repeal of the flawed Medicare payment formula, the sustainable growth rate.
In the forum you'll also find AMA Advocacy News, which contains links to news topics of interest to physicians.
To access the forum, AMA members must use their AMA login account. AMA members who do not have a login account can create one. Not a member? Join the AMA today to take advantage of this and other AMA member benefits.
