 PROFILE
The American Medical Association (AMA) is suffering from a sickly membership roll. The group has seen membership decline steadily to some 295,000 (about a third of the nation's more than 800,000 doctors, medical students, and residents). Factors affecting the drop include a loss of face after the AMA's 1997 decision to endorse Sunbeam products (the deal was cancelled) and a growing sense that the $420 annual fee ($378 online) is steep for what it gets -- a lobbying voice on Capitol Hill. Discounts for new doctors have also hurt revenue. The AMA was founded in 1847 and sets standards for the medical profession. It also sells books and products for physicians and is a partner in the Medem.com health information Web site.
