ACR Supports AMA’s Physician Practice Information Survey
The American Medical Association (AMA), with the support of the American College of Radiology (ACR) and more than 60 other medical specialty societies, will conduct a multi-specialty survey of America’s physician practices in 2007.
The purpose of the survey is to collect up-to-date information on physician practice characteristics in order to develop and redefine AMA policy. Data related to professional practice expenses will also be collected. Throughout the year the AMA will survey thousands of physicians from all physician specialties to ensure accurate and fair representation for physicians and their patients.
During the year 2007, you may be contacted by the Gallup Organization to participate in this study. We encourage you to do so, as the data obtained will be a critical source of information for the AMA and ACR.
Should you be called upon to contribute, your participation will ensure that the information collected will represent your concerns and especially those of your patients to national policy-makers. Please watch for this survey in 2007 and do your part to complete it in a thorough and accurate manner.
