ACP Internist is the official tabloid-sized member publication of the American College of Physicians (ACP). In addition, ACP Internist is distributed to over 10,000 highprescribing general internists who are not ACP members.
ACP Internist is written for general internists and internal medicine subspecialists and is a benefit of paid ACP membership. Many internists are primary care physicians who provide disease prevention services, diagnosis, and treatment to adults and adolescents. Others have chosen to specialize their practice in one of internal medicine’s fourteen subspecialties: cardiology, gastroenterology, nephrology, endocrinology, hematology, rheumatology, neurology, pulmonary disease, oncology, infectious diseases, allergy and immunology, sports medicine, critical care medicine, and geriatrics. There are twice as many general internists and subspecialists in the United States (219,344 as of June 2007) as family physicians (99,092) and general practitioners (9,383) combined, and last year internists wrote nearly half a billion prescriptions. This group constitutes the ideal market for advertisers who wish to reach highprescribing clinicians treating adult patients.
