Experience the AAFP

As a family physician, you stand on the front line of health care. The AAFP is proud to advocate on behalf of its members for better health care for patients and to provide extensive member resources for practice management and lifelong learning.

An AAFP membership is a great asset during these challenging years following residency. Our products and services will help you successfully manage issues such as privileging and credentialing, coding, CME reporting, and Board certification.

Experience the AAFP was created for new physician members. This AAFP program offers members in their first seven years following residency completion (currently eligible: 2001 – 2007) a sample of CME tools and networking opportunities at a reduced cost or free.
