The American College of Radiology® (ACR®) urges members to join or renew their membership in the American Medical Association by March 15. The value of ACR members being AMA members is to maximize radiology’s voice in the AMA House of Delegates (HOD). The HOD establishes policies that represent the views of the House of Medicine.

In determining medical organization participation, the AMA uses a strict formula. Each society has one HOD representative for every 1,000 members who are also AMA members.

ACR’s leadership in radiology is well recognized within the AMA HOD. Our participation in the AMA HOD provides numerous opportunities to collaborate and create alliances to influence policy and legislative advocacy decisions that promote quality patient care and enhance the practice of our specialty.

Help us help you, your practices, and most importantly – our patients - by joining or renewing your AMA membership today.

If you have questions or would like more information or would like to speak to a member of the ACR delegation to the AMA HOD, contact Jan Cox, ACR Member Services Specialist and AMA Liaison.
