Your Physicians Deserve a Voice. Here’s How You Give It to Them.
You’re not just running a department. You’re defending a team—against burnout, bureaucracy, and a system that sidelines emergency physicians. AAEM’s Emergency Medicine Group Membership gives your physicians a unified voice, a principled platform, and a clear stand for physician-led care.
Because this job should be about medicine—not margins.
Why Group Membership?
Emergency medicine isn’t broken. It’s being broken by:

- Decisions made without physicians in the room
Group Membership is how your team pushes back—together.
