The AMA looks to be now supporting insurance companies and hospitals instead of doctors.

This does not bode well for their future.

When I was in Med School the fraction of doctors that joined the AMA was 40%. Phylis Schlafly wrote an article years ago after ICD that it had gone down to single digits and the AMA made a deal with Democrats to allow copyrighting of the codes so they got a cut every time a code was used. So at the time of that writing 90% of the AMA’s funding was coming from the Fed Gov. the AMA has not really EVER actually represented doctors.
