Member Benefits


Connect with Like-Minded Peers | Network with other family docs from Indiana and across the country

We’re Here for You

You practice the broadest scope of medicine, and family physicians all over the country know exactly the joys—and challenges—you face each day. Now, more than ever, that common bond is the reason members of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) treasure the connections they make through this organization— dedicated to supporting family physicians and their specialty.

From chapter virtual and in-person gatherings to national meetings, you immediately gain a network with other family physicians both near and far—giving you someone to lean on for support no matter where you practice. Plus, you’ll get access to an incredible range of tools valued at more than $3,800 that supports both your professional pursuits and your personal well-being.

When you become an AAFP member, you’ll be able to tap into both your national AAFP and Indiana chapter benefits, including:

  • Advocacy in Indiana: Our legislative team represents you at the Indiana statehouse, and keeps abreast of changes that directly affect family medicine in our state. 
  • Advocacy on behalf of family medicine to national legislators: The AAFP's team in Washington, DC, works tirelessly to advance the specialty of family medicine.
  • Continuing education: Benefit from free and low cost live & virtual CME events; CME credit reporting with the AAFP; assistance with your ABFM maintenance of certification at our live & virtual KSA Study Groups; and the opportunity to attend practice management sessions.
  • Practice management: Members and their office staff can attend practice improvement forums free of charge. Coding and billing updates are distributed to members regularly. 
  • News and publications: Members receive the IAFP’s electronic newsletter (IAFP Today), our quarterly magazine (Frontline Physician), and updates/notifications by mail.
  • Special offers and discounts: We partner with organizations that offer discounts to IAFP members (see below).

It’s time to belong to an organization that will be there for you throughout your family medicine journey—no matter where you are.
