The goal of the American Association of Physician Liaisons (AAPL) is two-fold:

to bring together those actively engaged in physician liaison activities in  academic and acute care medical centers, community and children's hospitals, and independent, free-standing facilities and to advance the art of physician and health care provider relationships through the provision of educational programming, professional development, shared resources, and networking opportunities.

AAPL provides members with unique opportunities and resources to succeed in their roles. One of the many networking member benefits is the AAPL Annual Conference which highlights topics and educational sessions based on the needs identified by our members. Attendees have the opportunity to interact with others in similar sized organizations, discuss best practices, evaluate which activities have a good return on investment, and learn what's new in the field and how our roles are changing in response.

Benefits of membership in the AAPL include:

• Subscription to AAPL Newsletter
• Access to Membership Directory and search to find peers throughout the country
• Reduced Registration for the Annual Conference
• Benchmark Survey Information
