As a delegate, he was able to articulate to his practice, Articularis Physicians, the benefits of AMA membership, including the discount membership offered to groups, and he acknowledges that most rheumatologists don’t have a direct connection to the AMA. So Dr. Edgerton invites ACR members to contact him, or HOD Delegation Chair Gary Bryant, MD, FACP, by email to vent any frustrations or ask questions.
“Let me show you how you can change the course of AMA policy so your dissatisfaction can be taken somewhere,” says Dr. Edgerton.
To Join or Renew Membership
To join or renew membership in the AMA, ACR members can go online or call the AMA at 800-262-3211. Remember: The ACR needs to know when you join or renew your AMA membership; please send an email to [email protected] to notify the ACR and ensure your entry in the drawings happening this August.
