APALM strongly encourages all interested AAPA members to become an APALM Fellow member. Membership dues are only $50 annually, billed upon enrollment and each year thereafter. Through the act of paying your dues to become an APALM member, you explicitly agree to follow the Ethical Guidelines for PA expert witnesses adopted by the American Academy of Physician Assistants House of Delegates.

Professionals who are not PAs are welcome to be members of APALM.  Paralegals, attorneys, nurse practitioners and researchers and any other interested party may become APALM Members.  Affiliate members enjoy the same benefits as PA members including the newsletter, emailing all APALM members at any time and access to the member’s only section of the website. The dues are the same as for Fellow members.
