TMAA Membership

The benefits of membership in the Tennessee Medical Association Alliance are maximized by the federation of local and state Alliances with the national organization, the American Medical Association Alliance. This federation is the largest organization representing the family of medicine in the United States. In Tennessee, eligible individuals are encouraged to join all three levels through their local Alliance. To find out if there is a local/county Alliance in your area click here. In areas without a local Alliance, those meeting eligibility requirements are invited to become Members-at-large which combines membership in the state and national levels of the Alliance.

Benefits of TMAA membership

For You

• Make friends and become part of a lifelong support system. The Alliance is uniquely equipped to provide a unified voice for the family of medicine during every stage of life. From medical training through retirement, the Alliance provides relevant information, fellowship and support to the spouses and families of today’s physicians.
• Diverse volunteer opportunities. Whether you are interested in a “done-in-a-day” program on violence prevention at your child’s school or organizing a political rally for Medicare reform or something in between, the Alliance has the tools and support to make the most of your volunteer efforts.
• Training and Leadership development opportunities. Learn what it takes to publish a newsletter, update communication techniques or run unforgettable meetings. Consider lending your existing skills to lead and train others.

For Your Community

• Participate in advocacy efforts and initiatives aimed at improving the health of Tennesseans. Our members choose health education programs tailored to the needs of their individual communities. Learn more
• Collaborate with other organizations sharing common goals. Synergize your efforts through community, state and nationwide networks. For nearly 80 years, the TMA Alliance’s strong commitment to health education has earned the respect of many other philanthropic, government and business entities.
• Enhance the image of organized medicine. Demonstrate to your community that a strong medical community is “good medicine” for all Tennesseans.

For Our Future
