The document discusses the goals and mission of the American Medical Association (AMA). The AMA's mission is to promote medicine and public health. Its goals are to improve healthcare delivery, embrace the need for change through physician leadership, set standards for medical education and ethics, serve as a leading voice in healthcare transformation, and improve health outcomes, medical education, and physician satisfaction. In 2012, the AMA worked to reduce hassles for physicians and enable them to focus on patient care, which helped meet one of their goals of restoring physicians' joy in medicine.
