Membership Dues
Membership dues are presented on a single, consolidated invoice to the chair of the department of (internal) medicine for all LCME, CACMS, and COCA accredited medical schools with a defined department of (internal) medicine.
ACGME and RCPS accredited residency programs are also presented a consolidated invoice.
The invoice covers all AAIM member communities including:
- Department and division administrators (AIM)
- Residency and faculty administrators (APDIM)
- Department chairs (APM)
- Fellowship faculty (ASP)
- UME Faculty and administrators (CDIM)
- Med-peds faculty and administrators (MPPDA)
With a departmental payment, an unlimited number of individuals may enroll in each member community for no additional fee. Each individual must meet each community's eligibility criteria.

FAQs
How are departmental dues assessed? What are the rates?
A single fee is charged to departments. The fee is based on the number of filled positions per internal medicine residency program within the department.
What happens if my chair does not pay the departmental fee?
In the event that a department chair does not enroll his/her department with the consolidated invoice, individuals do not have the ability to enroll as an individual member in a charter association. If an individual is not in an eligible department of medicine, they may apply for individual membership.
What if my medical school doesn't have a department of medicine?
If you work at a medical school without a department of medicine, read more about individual membership requirements here.
