The Organized Medical Staff Section (OMSS) offers its members various opportunities to be involved and advocate for patients and the profession.
Employed Physician Caucus
The Employed Physician Caucus advises and provides counsel to the OMSS and to AMA staff on policy matters that bear directly on employed physicians and their patients. The caucus focuses on developing strategies, educational programs and policies to better serve AMA members, potential members and patients who practice in an employed setting.
At the 2025 OMSS Annual Meeting, elections were held for the positions of chair, vice chair and secretary. Alan Klitzke, MD, was elected as chair, Loay S. Kabbani, MD, was elected as vice chair and Neelum Aggarwal, MD, was elected to serve as secretary. Nancy Fan, MD, will serve as immediate past chair.
The caucus meets at the interim and annual meetings as well as various virtual meetings throughout the year. If you would like to be added to the Employed Physician Caucus mailing list, please email [email protected].
