Active involvement in organized medicine helps our specialty influence the significant changes in our health care system. Without a critical mass of hip and knee surgeons belonging to the AMA, we won’t have representation in the American Medical Association House of Delegates (AMA-HOD). This policymaking body of the AMA is our opportunity to collectively voice the perspectives and interests of hip and knee surgeons. To activate your 2016 AMA membership, visit ama-assn.org/go/join or call (800) 262-3211.
