As an association of engaged physicians who have trusted connections to millions of patients, the AMA is a leading voice that informs, guides and generates support for policies that advance meaningful initiatives—ones that address the concerns most relevant to all patients and physicians.

Together we are working to reduce regulatory burdens and promote health care delivery models that support physicians in doing what’s most important to them—providing high-quality care to their patients.
