Student Outreach: Steps For Record Creation
The Student Outreach Program creates affiliate student records in a database specifically designed to support AMA membership recruitment activities. The record includes:
- student membership application is received
- information is entered into the Student Outreach Database using the student supplied SSN as the initial unique identifier
- SOD data loaded into the AMA Masterfile with status of "unverified"
- student affiliate membership status is assigned
- payment is processed
- record with corresponding ME number is created.
- primary source notification of enrollment in an LCME-accredited (Liaison Committee on Medical Education) program received through the AAMC freshman matriculation file.
- student affiliate records stored in the Masterfile are matched to AAMC records.
- matched record now contains both an ME number and SSN and has been verified by the primary source. # affiliate status is removed and a permanent unique record on the Masterfile is established.
"Unverified" affiliate student records are considered and use of the data is limited to providing membership benefits and membership payment processing.
The AMA Masterfile has been in use since 1906.

“All things uncomely and broken, all things worn out and old,
The cry of a child by the roadway, the creak of a lumbering cart,
The heavy steps of the ploughman, splashing the wintry mould,
Are wronging your image that blossoms a rose in the deeps of my heart.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“We are at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it has been said if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening.”
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
“The very austerity of the Brahmans is tempting to the devotional soul, as a more refined and nobler luxury. Wants so easily and gracefully satisfied seem like a more refined pleasure. Their conception of creation is peaceful as a dream.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
