  • Industrial relations advice, support and representation 
  • Private practice support, advice and coding support services 
  • Continuing Professional Development services, including access to advice, information, recording systems and point-earning opportunities

Life members qualify for access to all SAMA facilities and services apart from a free journal subscription. Journal subscriptions are, however, available at a special rate for Life Members who wish to continue receiving these publications.
