I am a UMA student just like you!

Keep my example page open next to yours so you can follow along.

I just clicked Join Physicians and Administrative Leadership (physician/admin) and this form popped up. Since it’s my first time on PAHCOM, I need to create an account.

You should now see the screen below:

If you get an error re: “An account already exists for this email”, that means you have been to the PAHCOM site before and already set a password. Click here for more information.

It knows I’m also here to join physician/admin membership, not just create an account, so it gives me a combined form doing both at the same time.

I need to enter payment information like the industry healthcare managers do (even though my card will never be charged because I am a UMA Student and have a discount code). The discount code has to be entered so I don’t get charged. Do that now!

Your discount code is: ACP132-P

Once you click Apply, the code disappears but you can tell it’s working because now the balance is zero and there’s a gray box showing the code details. Once you see the zero balance, you can click the continue button.

One more chance to review everything before my membership account is created. This summary looks good to me. I’m clicking the Subscribe button.

This is the confirmation screen telling me that I have successfully joined. It also confirms my payment terms. Since I applied the UMA code and double checked the zero balance, I’m all set with my free membership.

Congratulations! If you followed me along the entire way, you are now a member of Physician/Admin. I look forward to networking with you and sharing knowledge in the community forum. I’m going to take some time to click around the menu and see what I can find. I know our UMA instructors have a lot planned for us as well. Maybe I’ll see you in the CMM VIP area one day. Good luck!

The next time you visit PAHCOM, you might not be logged in and the screen you see could look like this. If it does, just remember that you already have an account and sign in. “Already have an account? Sign in” That’s us!

Oh… one more thing. Now it is time to use this link to confirm your membership with your school faculty. The link will work now that you have joined!
