District Membership
The Massachusetts Medical Society consists of 20 district medical societies. For purposes of governance and member representation, membership in your district medical society is a requirement of membership in the MMS. Each district elects members
as representatives to the MMS House of Delegates, and to several district-level MMS committees, and each district has a representative on the Board of Trustees. District societies provide a method for members to become involved locally in Medical
Society programs and activities, and meet at least once a year (some meet more frequently).
You can join either the district where you work or live. Please indicate your choice on your application.
List of districts by city and town.
In addition to your annual MMS membership dues, you are required to pay dues to your district society.
