Referral Pilot Program Now Open for TMA Member Physicians

TMA LS Summit ATX 600

Texas Medical Association physician members can now take advantage of Impact Texas Medicine, a pilot program encouraging recruitment of nonmember colleagues with due-savings possibilities. 

The power of organized medicine is in its relationships, whether in advocacy, leadership, or membership growth, as a new TMA pilot program demonstrates, and nothing beats word-of-mouth recruitment between physicians, says Kimberly Monday, MD, chair of TMA’s Board of Trustees and Membership Advisory Committee.  

“Sharing your knowledge and encouraging other physicians to get involved is the best way to recruit membership,” she said. “But that takes time, so if our physicians are going to spend the time doing that, then they should be recognized.”   

Under a member’s TMA profile, the “New Member Referral Program” link generates a unique referral code. Copy your unique referral link and share it with your nonmember physician colleagues – but only share via email or text if you have the colleague’s consent to do so. Physicians can earn a $50 credit toward their dues for each new physician member that signs up using the referral link, capped at $150 in potential dues credits per dues year. Terms and conditions apply. 

To help members explain the benefits of TMA to their nonmember colleagues, “Impact Texas Medicine” participants will be supported with a marketing toolkit, including:  

  • Simple steps on how to participate in the program and recruit a new member; 
  • New membership benefits brochure, talking points, and a top 10 benefits card; and 
  • Helpful case studies and other tools to help physicians tell their unique membership stories during the peer-to-peer recruitment process.
