Governance

The management structure of AMGA embraces the physician/administrator team concept reflecting the views of both medicine and management. The Association emphasizes the role of governance and sound management in the success of its member groups and in its own operations.

The House of Delegates is composed of representatives from each of the member groups. Representation is determined by FTEs and follows this formula:

Number of FTEs Number of Delegates
3 - 100 FTEs 2
101 - 200 FTEs 4
201 - 300 FTEs 6
301 - 400 FTEs 8
More than 400 FTEs 10

AMGA's Board of Directors is composed of five officers and eleven at-large directors, who serve three-year terms. The association's Chief Executive Officer serves on the Board in a non-voting capacity. The Executive Committee is composed of the five officers elected from among the Board of Directors to provide leadership and direction.

AMGA’s Board of Governors consists of the top two physician and/or administrative leaders from each member medical group and is responsible for implementing AMGA’s national initiatives. It also provides a vehicle for the leadership of every major medical group in the country to come together, share information and resources, and collectively improve the profession.

The day-to-day business affairs of AMGA are managed by a full service staff of individuals who have the training and background to execute the various management, financial, data collection and analysis, education and training, clerical, and support functions fulfilled by the association. AMGA maintains offices in Alexandria, VA, Mt. Vernon, WA, and Atlanta, GA.
