Our Chapter Struggles with...

Membership involvement, student and resident involvement
Attendance and involvement of members in state academy activities
Finances – geography (north, south, rural) – malpractice insurance stress
Membership – more regular meetings with the state legislature
Developing leaders in a planned fashion – understanding how we can coordinate our activities with the national academy’s agenda – creating and sustaining a strong and influential presence in the political and business communities – delivering a strong political message – creating collaborations with other physician groups
Identifying potential new leaders
Small rural chapter – long distance to travel anywhere
New membership – new leaders
Attendance at annual meetings – encouraging membership for non-member family physicians
Leadership development in new/young members
Recruiting new graduates to become active members
Helping our rural docs so they can get to state meetings – doctor of the day at legislature, etc. – helping implement and explore EHR and FFM program
Lack of interaction with national organization and other chapters
Keeping our older physicians active and engaged
Liability problems
Member involvement in legislative contacts – attendance at annual meetings
Revenue
Attendance/involvement/direction
