Medical Association of the State of Alabama (MASA)

The Medical Association of the State of Alabama is the professional association for some 7,000 physicians of all specialties throughout Alabama. The association exists to serve, lead and unite physicians in promoting the highest quality of health care for the people of Alabama through advocacy, information and education.

Founded more than 140 years ago, the Medical Association's strategic agenda remains rooted in its historic commitment to the medical profession, physicians and the patients they serve.

Medical Association is one of a very few truly democratic organizations. The membership has vital input into the workings of the association through the elected College of Counsellors and House of Delegates. This body not only elects the Board of Censors, but also votes on policy resolutions that guide the Board and staff in issues of importance to physicians.
