There is also an Auxiliary Dues payment that is a voluntary payment provided the member&#39;s spouse does want to participate as a member of the Auxiliary. The final item listed is the NIF Voluntary Contribution payment which is also a voluntary payment and IS NOT a tax deductible item because these funds are dedicated solely for the purposes of paying for lobbying expenses.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is the period that is covered by the Annual Dues Fees? </b><br />\r\n	A: The period that is covered by yearly dues is January 1 to December 31 of the involved year or at any point within the involved year until December 31 of that same year.

(AAPS) was founded to fill a professional need among physicians practicing in medical specialties. Providing a coordinated structure for affiliated academies of medicine, the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc., serves its member physicians with a broad range of professional, administrative, and educational functions. The American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc., is a national, not- for-profit organization representing thousands of physicians practicing in a variety of medical specialties. Founded in 1950 by Doctor E.O. Martin and incorporated in 1952, the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc., has continued to expand its services and benefits to member physicians according to the changing needs of the industry. Distinct from other medical societies, the AAPS accepts qualified physicians into membership who have either an allopathic (M.D.) or osteopathic (D.O.) degree.</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	The founding affiliate of the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc., was established to provide a clinically recognized structure for certification and recertification of physicians with advanced training in a number of medical specialties. Since 1984, AAPS has provided a headquarters for medical specialty boards of certification, meeting this essential need in the healthcare delivery system.</p>\r\n',0,'2010-03-18 20:12:20','2010-03-18 20:12:20',1),(281,3,5,NULL,'','AAPS Board Certificaiton - Personal & Professional Benefits for Memebers','membership','physicians specialties, medical board certification, aaps, american association of physicians specialties, board certification, board certifications, physician specialties, medical specialties, physician specialty, physicians specialty','AAPS offers a myriad of personal & professional benefits including consulting, financial, informational, professional, and special rate.

This provides membership in&nbsp;a&nbsp;specific Academy of Medicine (AOM).&nbsp; Second, there is an Auxiliary dues payment that is a voluntary payment provided the member&#39;s spouse would like&nbsp;to participate as a member of the Auxiliary. The final item listed is the NIF Voluntary Contribution payment which is also a voluntary payment and IS NOT a tax deductible item because these funds are dedicated solely for the purposes of paying for lobbying expenses.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is the period that is covered by the Annual Dues Fees? </b><br />\r\n	A: The period that is covered by yearly dues is January 1 to December 31 of the involved year or at any point within the involved year until December 31 of that same year. For example: If you join in April of 2009 then your membership in AAPS is from April 2009 until December 31, 2009.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: If I join as a new member later in the year do I have to pay the full year&#39;s dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: The answer depends on when you join the organization. Our annual dues are prorated in quarterly increments over the course of a year. The amount of which you pay for membership is based on the date in which your Membership Application was received and the yearly dues were billed. The amounts are as follows: January 1 - March 31, 100% of yannual dues, April 1 - June 30, 75% of annual dues, July 1 - September 30, 50% of annual dues, October 1 - December 31, 25% of annual dues.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is considered a New Member? </b><br />\r\n	A. This is an individual who has never paid yearly dues to the organization at any time. These&nbsp;individuals,&nbsp;prior to paying their yearly dues are applicants, provided they have a Membership, Certification, or both applications on file.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: When will I receive a dues notice? </b><br />\r\n	A: Initial annual dues notices are mailed in October for the following year in order&nbsp;to give members adequate time to pay their yearly dues prior to the first of the year. Additional notices are sent out in December, February (with late fees added), and a letter informing the member of removal from &quot;good standing&quot; is mailed on April 1,&nbsp;if a member has not paid their annual dues by that time.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: Do I have to pay my annual dues by January 1? </b><br />\r\n	A: No. We do recommend having your payment in as soon as possible, but it is not required to be in by January 1. However, dues received after January 31 are billed a late fee and in order to remain a member in &quot;good standing&quot;, yearly dues must be received&nbsp;no later than March 31 of the involved year.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is a member in good standing and how does it affect me? </b><br />\r\n	A: A member in &quot;good standing&quot; is one who is current with all presently owed dues for the involved year before March 31 of the involved year. Only members in &quot;good standing&quot; receive organizational mailings, information and all the benefits associated with membership.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What will I have to do if my membership lapses? </b><br />\r\n	A: When a membership is lapsed,&nbsp;the member&nbsp;will have to pay all outstanding dues, late fees, and reinstatement fees up through the current year prior to their membership being reinstated.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What are the Auxiliary Dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: Auxiliary dues are used to help the organization pay for various social events held at AAPS meetings. These dues are totally voluntary and are not mandatory payments for a member to remain in &quot;good standing&quot;.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is the NIF Voluntary Item? </b><br />\r\n	A: The National Initiative Fund (NIF) was started in 2002 to help offset growing expenses with regard to lobbying efforts being conducted in various states. This is a completely voluntary contribution that is not tax deductible due to the fact that all funds given with regard to this contribution go to various state lobbying efforts. The amount listed on the bill is only a suggested amount and any contribution is greatly appreciated.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What are late fees&nbsp;&amp; reinstatement fees and when are they charged? </b><br />\r\n	A: Late and reinstatement fees are fees that are added at certain points in the billing year for&nbsp;member(s) who have not yet renewed their membership in the organization. Late fees are billed to members who have not paid their annual dues before January 31 of the involved year. Reinstatement fees are billed to members who have not paid their yearly dues by March 31 and are no longer a member in &quot;good standing&quot;. Both fees are mandatory payments once they are billed to the member.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: How can I pay my annual dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: There are various ways that annual dues can be paid.&nbsp; Checks, money orders, Visa,&nbsp;&nbsp; MasterCard, and American Express are accepted.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p align=\"center\">\r\n	<img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://www.aapsus.org/downloads/dues_notice.gif\" usemap=\"#finalnotice\" /></p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>NOTE: All Fee Pricing is subject to change prior to annual billing cycles starting.

These state-based activities will complement, not replace or compete with, specialty-based academy activities. Therefore, the Academy presidents have taken the lead in contacting members in their home states to encourage communication. Working primarily by email, AAPS members will have the ability to share solutions to problems that others may also face. The second phase of the initiative will be for other Academy officers to contact members in their states, thus multiplying the number of states and members involved.</p>\r\n',0,'2010-03-18 20:54:51','2010-03-18 20:54:51',1),(296,16,9,NULL,'','Board of Medical Examiners Recognition & Awards','recognition-awards','board of medical examiners, medical licensing board, emergency physician, emergency medicine, disaster medicine, cme, cme re-certification, continuing medical education, board certification, medical board certification','The Physician of the Year award may be presented by each Academy of Medicine to a member who has contributed to the growth, recognition, and leadership of the Academy.','','','','<h2>\r\n	2009 AWARDS AND RECOGNITION</h2>\r\n<p>\r\n	<br />\r\n	The following awards were presented during the 2009 AAPS Annual Scientific Meeting at the President&rsquo;s Awards Dinner on June 27, 2009.</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	<b><i>E.O.

AAPS B-Laws require that the &quot;Association shall enroll each person accepted as a member of the Association as a member of the affiliated Academy which represents most closely the member&#39;s area of practice and interests.&quot; New members may be assigned to more than one academy based upon their training and experience.</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	<b>Diplomate Members</b><br />\r\n	Diplomate members are members of the Academy who have been certified by the ABPS Board of Certification in the same specialty. Upon achieving Diplomate status, members enjoy privileges not available to other academy members. Diplomate members may be elected to serve as an Officer or Governor of their Academy and in this capacity they can vote for members of the ABPS Board of Certification in their specialty. In addition, only Diplomates may be selected by their Academy to receive the Physician of the Year award or to receive the Degree of Fellow.</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	<b>Council of Academy Presidents</b><br />\r\n	The Council of Academy Presidents (CAP) is composed of the presidents of each Academy and provides a forum for presidents to meet and explore issues facing the association and to devise concerted strategies and responses to those issues. The roles of the CAP include to:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>\r\n		Oversee and guide the direction of the professional academies recognized by and affiliated with the association to facilitate each Academy&#39;s promotion of the highest intellectual, moral, and ethical standards in the practice of the medical specialty or specialties represented by the respective Academies;</li>\r\n	<li>\r\n		Establish criteria and make recommendations to the AAPS Board of Directors with respect to the creation, recognition, and affiliation of other professional academies;</li>\r\n	<li>\r\n		Establish, with the approval of the AAPS Board of Directors, standards for the use of the professional academies in awarding the Degree of Fellow; and</li>\r\n	<li>\r\n		Advise and inform the AAPS Boards of Directors of initiatives and activities related to the educational and professional purposes of the Academies.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>\r\n	<b>Promotion of State-Based Activity</b><br />\r\n	A state-based member initiative was launched in the Fall of 2002 by the Council of Academy Presidents, who believe that some issues facing members might be better resolved via communication within a state than through specialty-based groups. These state-based activities will complement, not replace or compete with, specialty-based academy activities. Therefore, the Academy presidents have taken the lead in contacting members in their home states to encourage communication. Working primarily by email, AAPS members will have the ability to share solutions to problems that others may also face. The second phase of the initiative will be for other Academy officers to contact members in their states, thus multiplying the number of states and members involved.</p>\r\n',0,'2010-03-19 23:23:57','2010-03-19 23:23:57',1),(331,19,19,NULL,'','AAPS & ABPS Physician Career Center - Online Employment Connections','career-center','medical board certification, aaps, american association of physician specialties, board certification, board certifications, medical certifications, american board of medical specialties, emergency medicine, alternate board certification,','The ABPS Physician Career Center offers its members, and the industry at large, an easy-to-use and highly targeted resource for online employment connections.','AAPS & ABPS Physician Career Center - Find the Perfect Job in the Medical Industry','','','<p>\r\n	<img alt=\"\" src=\"userfiles/images/shutterstock_2741669.jpg\" style=\"padding-right: 10px; float: left; width: 300px; height: 200px; margin: 10px;\" /></p>\r\n<p>\r\n	In December 2008, <a href=\"http://www.abpsus.org\" target=\"_blank\">American Board of Physician Specialists (ABPS)</a> launched their interactive job board, the ABPS Physician Career Center.

Distinct from other medical societies, the AAPS accepts qualified physicians into membership who have either an allopathic (M.D.) or osteopathic (D.O.) degree.</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	The founding affiliate of the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc., was established to provide a clinically recognized structure for certification and recertification of physicians with advanced training in a number of medical specialties. Since 1984, AAPS has provided a headquarters for medical specialty boards of certification, meeting this essential need in the healthcare delivery system.</p>\r\n',0,'2010-03-30 12:42:03','2010-03-30 12:42:03',1),(339,1,23,NULL,'','Medical Specialties - American Association of Physician Specialties','home','medical specialties, american board of medical specialties, medical specialty, specialty medical, american medical specialties, american association of physician specialties, aaps, medical board certification\r\n','The American Association of Physician Specialists is a nationally recognized not-for-profit medical association that helps maintain the highest professional standards among member physicians.\r\n','AAPS - The Resource for Physicians Practicing In Medical Specialties','slogan_bg0.jpg','<table cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"257\">\r\n	<tbody>\r\n		<tr>\r\n			<td>\r\n				<center>\r\n					<img alt=\"\" height=\"140\" src=\"/images/aaps_08.jpg\" width=\"239\" /></center>\r\n			</td>\r\n		</tr>\r\n		<tr>\r\n			<td style=\"background: url(&quot;/images/aaps_20.jpg&quot;) repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous; width: 257px; height: 45px; color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;\">\r\n				WHAT&#39;S HOT?</td>\r\n		</tr>\r\n		<tr>\r\n			<td class=\"sidebar\" style=\"background: url(&quot;/images/aaps-side.jpg&quot;) repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous; width: 257px;\">\r\n				<div style=\"padding: 10px 30px;\">\r\n					1.

Providing a coordinated structure for affiliated academies of medicine, the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc.serves its member physicians with a broad range of professional, administrative, and educational functions. The American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc. is a national, not- for-profit organization representing thousands of physicians practicing in a variety of medical specialties. &nbsp;Founded in 1950 by Doctor E.O. Martin and incorporated in 1952, the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc. has continued to expand its services and benefits to member physicians according to the changing needs of the industry. Distinct from other medical societies, the AAPS accepts qualified physicians into membership who have either an allopathic (M.D.) or osteopathic (D.O.) degree.</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	The founding affiliate of the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc. was established to provide a clinically recognized structure for certification and recertification of physicians with advanced training in a number of medical specialties. Since 1984, AAPS has provided a headquarters for medical specialty boards of certification, meeting this essential need in the healthcare delivery system.</p>\r\n',0,'2010-04-01 16:58:37','2010-04-01 16:58:37',1),(362,55,20,NULL,'','What\'s Hot - The latest information that you need, STAT!!','whats-hot','','','What Physicians Need to Know Now','','','<p>\r\n	<img alt=\"\" src=\"userfiles/images/membership.jpg\" style=\"width: 188px; height: 150px; float: left; padding-right: 10px;\" /></p>\r\n<h2>\r\n	View Latest Publications</h2>\r\n<p>\r\n	The American Journal of Clinical Medicine (AJCM&reg;) is the official, peer-reviewed journal of the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc.

Providing a coordinated structure for affiliated academies of medicine, the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc.serves its member physicians with a broad range of professional, administrative, and educational functions. The American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc. is a national, not- for-profit organization representing thousands of physicians practicing in a variety of medical specialties. &nbsp;Founded in 1950 by Doctor E.O. Martin and incorporated in 1952, the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc. has continued to expand its services and benefits to member physicians according to the changing needs of the industry. Distinct from other medical societies, the AAPS accepts qualified physicians into membership who have either an allopathic (M.D.) or osteopathic (D.O.) degree.</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	The founding affiliate of the American Association of Physician Specialists, Inc. was established to provide a clinically recognized structure for certification and recertification of physicians with advanced training in a number of medical specialties. Since 1984, AAPS has provided a headquarters for medical specialty boards of certification, meeting this essential need in the healthcare delivery system.</p>\r\n',0,'2010-04-01 19:08:03','2010-04-01 19:08:03',1),(379,26,8,NULL,'','Medical Board Certification & Medical Specialties Staff ','Staff','medical board certification, american association of physician specialists, abps, board certification, medical board certification, medical specialties, medical specialty, emergency medicine, disaster medicine','The American Association of Physician Specialties offers a list of all staff for your convenience.

This provides membership in&nbsp;a&nbsp;specific Academy of Medicine (AOM).&nbsp; Second, there is an Auxiliary dues payment that is a voluntary payment provided the member&#39;s spouse would like&nbsp;to participate as a member of the Auxiliary. The final item listed is the NIF Voluntary Contribution payment which is also a voluntary payment and IS NOT a tax deductible item because these funds are dedicated solely for the purposes of paying for lobbying expenses.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is the period that is covered by the Annual Dues Fees? </b><br />\r\n	A: The period that is covered by yearly dues is January 1 to December 31 of the involved year or at any point within the involved year until December 31 of that same year. For example: If you join in April of 2009 then your membership in AAPS is from April 2009 until December 31, 2009.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: If I join as a new member later in the year do I have to pay the full year&#39;s dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: The answer depends on when you join the organization. Our annual dues are prorated in quarterly increments over the course of a year. The amount of which you pay for membership is based on the date in which your Membership Application was received and the yearly dues were billed. The amounts are as follows: January 1 - March 31, 100% of yannual dues, April 1 - June 30, 75% of annual dues, July 1 - September 30, 50% of annual dues, October 1 - December 31, 25% of annual dues.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is considered a New Member? </b><br />\r\n	A. This is an individual who has never paid yearly dues to the organization at any time. These&nbsp;individuals,&nbsp;prior to paying their yearly dues are applicants, provided they have a Membership, Certification, or both applications on file.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: When will I receive a dues notice? </b><br />\r\n	A: Initial annual dues notices are mailed in October for the following year in order&nbsp;to give members adequate time to pay their yearly dues prior to the first of the year. Additional notices are sent out in December, February (with late fees added), and a letter informing the member of removal from &quot;good standing&quot; is mailed on April 1,&nbsp;if a member has not paid their annual dues by that time.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: Do I have to pay my annual dues by January 1? </b><br />\r\n	A: No. We do recommend having your payment in as soon as possible, but it is not required to be in by January 1. However, dues received after January 31 are billed a late fee and in order to remain a member in &quot;good standing&quot;, yearly dues must be received&nbsp;no later than March 31 of the involved year.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is a member in good standing and how does it affect me? </b><br />\r\n	A: A member in &quot;good standing&quot; is one who is current with all presently owed dues for the involved year before March 31 of the involved year. Only members in &quot;good standing&quot; receive organizational mailings, information and all the benefits associated with membership.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What will I have to do if my membership lapses? </b><br />\r\n	A: When a membership is lapsed,&nbsp;the member&nbsp;will have to pay all outstanding dues, late fees, and reinstatement fees up through the current year prior to their membership being reinstated.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What are the Auxiliary Dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: Auxiliary dues are used to help the organization pay for various social events held at AAPS meetings. These dues are totally voluntary and are not mandatory payments for a member to remain in &quot;good standing&quot;.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is the NIF Voluntary Item? </b><br />\r\n	A: The National Initiative Fund (NIF) was started in 2002 to help offset growing expenses with regard to lobbying efforts being conducted in various states. This is a completely voluntary contribution that is not tax deductible due to the fact that all funds given with regard to this contribution go to various state lobbying efforts. The amount listed on the bill is only a suggested amount and any contribution is greatly appreciated.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What are late fees&nbsp;&amp; reinstatement fees and when are they charged? </b><br />\r\n	A: Late and reinstatement fees are fees that are added at certain points in the billing year for&nbsp;member(s) who have not yet renewed their membership in the organization. Late fees are billed to members who have not paid their annual dues before January 31 of the involved year. Reinstatement fees are billed to members who have not paid their yearly dues by March 31 and are no longer a member in &quot;good standing&quot;. Both fees are mandatory payments once they are billed to the member.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: How can I pay my annual dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: There are various ways that annual dues can be paid.&nbsp; Checks, money orders, Visa,&nbsp;&nbsp; MasterCard, and American Express are accepted.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p align=\"center\">\r\n	<img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://www.aapsus.org/downloads/dues_notice.gif\" usemap=\"#finalnotice\" /></p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>NOTE: All Fee Pricing is subject to change prior to annual billing cycles starting.

This provides membership in&nbsp;a&nbsp;specific Academy of Medicine (AOM).&nbsp; Second, there is an Auxiliary dues payment that is a voluntary payment provided the member&#39;s spouse would like&nbsp;to participate as a member of the Auxiliary. The final item listed is the NIF Voluntary Contribution payment which is also a voluntary payment and IS NOT a tax deductible item because these funds are dedicated solely for the purposes of paying for lobbying expenses.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is the period that is covered by the Annual Dues Fees? </b><br />\r\n	A: The period that is covered by yearly dues is January 1 to December 31 of the involved year or at any point within the involved year until December 31 of that same year. For example: If you join in April of 2009 then your membership in AAPS is from April 2009 until December 31, 2009.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: If I join as a new member later in the year do I have to pay the full year&#39;s dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: The answer depends on when you join the organization. Our annual dues are prorated in quarterly increments over the course of a year. The amount of which you pay for membership is based on the date in which your Membership Application was received and the yearly dues were billed. The amounts are as follows: January 1 - March 31, 100% of yannual dues, April 1 - June 30, 75% of annual dues, July 1 - September 30, 50% of annual dues, October 1 - December 31, 25% of annual dues.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is considered a New Member? </b><br />\r\n	A. This is an individual who has never paid yearly dues to the organization at any time. These&nbsp;individuals,&nbsp;prior to paying their yearly dues are applicants, provided they have a Membership, Certification, or both applications on file.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: When will I receive a dues notice? </b><br />\r\n	A: Initial annual dues notices are mailed in October for the following year in order&nbsp;to give members adequate time to pay their yearly dues prior to the first of the year. Additional notices are sent out in December, February (with late fees added), and a letter informing the member of removal from &quot;good standing&quot; is mailed on April 1,&nbsp;if a member has not paid their annual dues by that time.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: Do I have to pay my annual dues by January 1? </b><br />\r\n	A: No. We do recommend having your payment in as soon as possible, but it is not required to be in by January 1. However, dues received after January 31 are billed a late fee and in order to remain a member in &quot;good standing&quot;, yearly dues must be received&nbsp;no later than March 31 of the involved year.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is a member in good standing and how does it affect me? </b><br />\r\n	A: A member in &quot;good standing&quot; is one who is current with all presently owed dues for the involved year before March 31 of the involved year. Only members in &quot;good standing&quot; receive organizational mailings, information and all the benefits associated with membership.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What will I have to do if my membership lapses? </b><br />\r\n	A: When a membership is lapsed,&nbsp;the member&nbsp;will have to pay all outstanding dues, late fees, and reinstatement fees up through the current year prior to their membership being reinstated.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What are the Auxiliary Dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: Auxiliary dues are used to help the organization pay for various social events held at AAPS meetings. These dues are totally voluntary and are not mandatory payments for a member to remain in &quot;good standing&quot;.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What is the NIF Voluntary Item? </b><br />\r\n	A: The National Initiative Fund (NIF) was started in 2002 to help offset growing expenses with regard to lobbying efforts being conducted in various states. This is a completely voluntary contribution that is not tax deductible due to the fact that all funds given with regard to this contribution go to various state lobbying efforts. The amount listed on the bill is only a suggested amount and any contribution is greatly appreciated.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: What are late fees&nbsp;&amp; reinstatement fees and when are they charged? </b><br />\r\n	A: Late and reinstatement fees are fees that are added at certain points in the billing year for&nbsp;member(s) who have not yet renewed their membership in the organization. Late fees are billed to members who have not paid their annual dues before January 31 of the involved year. Reinstatement fees are billed to members who have not paid their yearly dues by March 31 and are no longer a member in &quot;good standing&quot;. Both fees are mandatory payments once they are billed to the member.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>Q: How can I pay my annual dues? </b><br />\r\n	A: There are various ways that annual dues can be paid.&nbsp; Checks, money orders, Visa,&nbsp;&nbsp; MasterCard, and American Express are accepted.</p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>\r\n	&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p align=\"center\">\r\n	<img alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http://www.aapsus.org/downloads/dues_notice.gif\" usemap=\"#finalnotice\" /></p>\r\n<p align=\"left\">\r\n	<b>NOTE: All Fee Pricing is subject to change prior to annual billing cycles starting.
