We encourage any rheumatologist contacted by the Gallup Organization conducting the survey to participate, as the data obtained will be a critical source of information for the AMA and the ACR. Should you be called upon to contribute, your participation ensures that the information collected will represent your and your patients’ concerns to national policy-makers.

The purpose of the survey is to collect up-to-date information on physician practice characteristics and professional practice expenses in order to develop and redefine AMA and ACR policies. The AMA and its partner societies will survey thousands of physicians over the year from virtually all physician specialties to ensure accurate and fair representation for all physicians and their patients. Please watch for the survey in 2007 and do your part by completing it in a thorough and accurate manner.

Get Involved with the ACR/ARHP

The first step to making a difference is volunteering. If you have been considering getting more involved in the work of the ACR or ARHP, now is a great time to apply. Volunteering is a great way to develop a network of peers, to expand your learning opportunities, and perhaps most important, to give back to the profession. Is this the year you will step forward and apply to volunteer?
