Trusted by Leading Medical Associations & Scientific Societies

One Platform for Membership, Events, Email and More
i4a is association management software for medical associations and specialty societies. Pricing starts at $99 a month for one staff user, with unlimited members.
What Changes When Your Medical Association Runs on i4a
CME on every member record
Credits from your conferences and sessions land on each member's CME transcript.

Support that answers the phone
A U.S.-based team that has served medical associations since 1996.
Generic Platforms Don't Understand Medical Professional Associations
Most AMS platforms track members. Medical and scientific societies manage specialties, credentials, CME/CEU credits, committees, and education — and the relationships between them. Generic platforms force that into spreadsheets and paid add-ons; i4a keeps it in one member record.
Credit types assigned to sessions; members pull their own transcripts
Board certifications, license numbers, specialty designations—reportable custom fields
Same price whether you have 1,000 or 50,000 members—growth is never penalized
A member's CE transcript in i4a: date-filtered, session-level CME credits, self-service.
Medical Societies and Healthcare Associations on i4a
i4a serves medical societies and healthcare associations of many kinds.
- National specialty and subspecialty societies
- State and county medical societies
- Nursing associations
- Medical group associations
- Scientific societies
Their work has a lot in common. Members hold credentials and specialties, earn CME or CE credits, and meet at annual conferences with concurrent sessions. Many societies also manage institutional members such as hospitals and group practices.
One member record
- Credentials and specialty
- CME / CE history
- Individual membership
- Hospital or group affiliation
- Conference participation
Everything stays connected in one member record, so staff are not reconciling spreadsheets before every renewal cycle or annual meeting.

How Does CME Tracking Work in i4a?
CME tracking in i4a records continuing education credits on each member's record, session by session, by credit type and program.
-
Set up your credits
Define CME, CEU and the other credit types your society awards.
-
Credits are recorded
Each conference session carries its own credit value; attendance records the credits to the member.
-
Members and staff use it
Members view their CE history and export a transcript from the portal; staff report by credit type and period.
External credits live here too
Credits earned outside your organization can be kept in the same member record; external CE records can be imported.
What CME tracking doesn't do
- Certifications issued by licensing boards
- Real-time sync with external CE systems
- Official CE certificates
Your society handles certificates separately.
What Association Leaders Say About i4a
“For me, this was about more than choosing software. It was about supporting the community we were building and knowing we had a team we could count on.”
Kerry Bamrick, MBAExecutive Director, Consortium for Advanced Practice Providers

"After using i4a for many years, we switched to another provider but decided to return about 18 months ago—and we're glad we did. The improvements they've made during our time away have been remarkable… The transition back to i4a was seamless thanks to their excellent support team… their ticket system consistently delivers responses within the same day. It's rare to find this level of responsiveness in the software industry."
"We used to have a web designer handle all of our website issues, which cost a lot and was not always timely. Also, our annual membership dues and conference registration was all done by hand or had awkward payment interface. i4a is substantially better."
What Is i4a, and What Does It Cost a Medical Association in 2026?
i4a is association management software for medical associations: medical societies, specialty societies and healthcare associations that collect dues, run conferences and track CME for their members. The price is set by the number of staff users, not by how many members you have, so it suits a small staff serving a large membership.
It handles membership and automated renewals, conference and session registration, CME credits on each member record, email, a searchable member directory, a self-service member portal and your website, all in one system with one member database.
2026 pricing: Core is $99 a month for one staff user, $198 for two and $245 for the five-user plan ($2,935 a year, billed annually). Pro starts at $224 a month. Every plan includes unlimited members and contacts, with no platform per-transaction fees. There is a one-time $1,500 setup fee, and monthly plans run on an annual contract.
In dollars: a medical association with one staff user pays $2,688 in its first year ($1,188 in subscription plus the $1,500 setup fee) and $1,188 a year after that, whatever the size of its membership.

Medical Professional Association FAQs
Yes. Our CE tracking system tracks continuing education credits earned through your organization's educational activities (conferences, webinars, courses). You can assign multiple credit types (CME, CNE, ethics, specialty-specific), track credits simultaneously, and set program numbers for your records. Members view their complete CE history earned through your programs via their dashboard, filtered by credit type and date range. They can export their own credit transcript showing participation in your activities.
Comprehensive CE tracking: We can import CE records from external sources into member profiles to consolidate all continuing education data in one place. This includes initial migration when you switch to i4a, plus periodic updates as needed to add external CE credits members earn outside your organization. Import is performed by our team to ensure data integrity and is billed at our hourly support rate.
Important limitations: We do not manage external certifications issued by licensing boards, automatically sync with other CE systems in real-time, or generate official CE certificates (organizations handle certificate production separately).
Most medical professional associations are live within 60-90 days from contract signing. Within one business day of signing up, you'll receive access to a development site and a detailed step-by-step onboarding checklist to work with.
Our team guides you through the initial setup including member data migration, payment gateway configuration, website design, and email template creation. You'll have a dedicated implementation specialist who works with you through each step of the process and ensures your team is comfortable before launch.
Unlike DIY platforms that leave you to figure it out alone, we provide hands-on support and guidance throughout the process.
Your member data is protected by enterprise-grade security infrastructure. Our network uses dual active/passive firewalls with automatic failover, database servers that are completely isolated from internet access, and encrypted passwords at rest. We don't store payment information in your database—all transactions are processed through PCI DSS Level 1 compliant payment gateways.
Physical security: Tier III colocation facility in the United States with 24/7 guarded access, badge and biometric entry, mantrap entry controls and locked server racks. Servers run on solid-state storage behind redundant firewalls, with dual internet connections, battery backup and generator power, and remote monitoring of critical systems.
Data protection: Database backups every 4 hours, uploaded files backed up daily. Unlike networks with employee workstations vulnerable to phishing and malware, our network has no workstations—eliminating the most common security vulnerabilities. All servers run continuously updated open-source software (Apache, Ubuntu Linux, MariaDB) with firewall rules allowing only necessary protocols.
