What Your Organization Gets When You Join AMIA
AMIA membership is a cost-effective professional development investment in health informatics. Here’s why:
A Network That Works as Hard as You Do

Membership Investment
A Membership That Pays for Itself
When I register to attend a single AMIA conference, my annual membership fee is recovered by my member discount for conference registration.
Compare the cost of AMIA membership to conference registration, a continuing education course, or a journal subscription, and you’ll see why AMIA membership is one of the smartest investments in health informatics.
