Membership

Montana Chapter of AAP Members have the benefit of a detailed listing in the General Pediatrician or Pediatric Sub-specialist Directory which may include a picture if you wish. Membership in Montana AAP also brings reduced fees for the annual meeting each fall, and the opportunity to join with other pediatricians in networking and leadership to improve the health and well-being of Montana children and families.

Pediatric Sub-specialists may appreciate the benefit of a detailed listing in the Directory to increase their statewide referral base.

If you are a Fellow of national AAP, you can initiate chapter membership through that website www.aap.org and have a single billing.

If you no longer belong to national AAP and want to join the chapter only, please contact Executive Director, Molly Taylor at info@mtpeds.org for information.

We also offer a category of Affiliate membership for physicians who are not Fellows of the national academy, but are practicing Pediatricians or Pediatric Sub-specialists in Montana. Please contact Molly Taylor, info@mtpeds.org for information on this option.

State chapter dues are $75 for voting Fellows and $50 for Candidate Fellows and Affiliate Members.
