The Council is a trusted network of Compliance Officers charged with the significant responsibilities of ensuring their organizations’ adherence to compliance-related federal, state and local government statutory and regulatory mandates and guidance directives. Members of the Council are committed to sharing ideas, strategies and information with colleagues facing similar challenges and to building stronger professional connections with their peers in similar positions and organizations. Council members must be willing to actively work together on mutually beneficial studies, projects or other activities which can accelerate collective learning, reduce the costs of innovation and discovery, and facilitate the transfer of new knowledge to the larger community of AMGA members.

• Identify gaps in information, data, or benchmarks needed by Council members to be more effective in their jobs
• Help keep AMGA staff apprised of current issues and challenges being faced within member medical groups
• Participate in studies, projects, or other activities determined to be priorities by the Council
• Assist in supporting the activities of the Council with annual individual dues contribution of $150
• Willingly and openly share ideas, strategies, and information with other members of the Council
• Agree to attend Council meetings and events
• Communicate the work of the Council within the members’ home organizations

Only Compliance Officers, or others who fulfill a similar role, who are employed within AMGA member groups are eligible to participate in the Council. There will be no limit to the number of members in the Council, and there is no limit to the number of eligible individuals from any AMGA member group. However, the Council may be divided into sub-groups should the Council leadership decide that a group has become too large to effectively serve the needs of the members. Each member agrees to keep its membership current by payment of annual fees of $150.00 for each individual designated as a participant by an AMGA member.

The Council will meet a minimum of twice each year. One of the semi-annual meetings will coincide with AMGA’s Annual Conference, and will provide an opportunity for all Councils to get together at a luncheon. The second meeting will occur approximately six months out from the Annual Meeting and will include a Council dinner with an invited guest speaker. In addition to these meetings, AMGA will provide a menu of communication vehicles for the Council which may include:

• A dedicated listserv to allow for continual exchange of information among the Council members
• Regularly scheduled teleconferences with presentations from thought leaders and content experts
• Facilitated work groups around topics identified by Council members. Each work group will be staffed by AMGA
• Council newsletter written by participants and other “experts”
• A dedicated page on AMGA’s website with useful links recommended by Council participants and additional links to other Council pages.
