Insurance coverage begins on the date of receipt at AMA Headquarters of a properly completed application and correct dues payment. Membership ends each year on December 31, regardless of the date a membership application is received. Applications received after October 1 will be effective for the remainder of that year and for the following year. If a magazine is included with membership, it will be mailed beginning with the first issue available for the year after a correct current application and payment are received; it expires with the issue printed in December (which is dated January of the following year). Members outside the U.S. will have an additional $24.00 postage and handling charge for magazine delivery; dues for memberships are subject to change. Any such changes will be noted at the time of membership processing.
