In addition it has other Vice Presidents for targeted areas: Membership, MedInfo, Services, Special Affairs, Strategic Plan Implementation, and Working Groups. With the exception of the President and the Vice President of MedInfo all officers serve a three-year term that can be extended for a second three-year term. The President and Vice President are on a two - year term and the Vice President of MedInfo has one 2-year term and is elected the year before the next Medinfo meeting so that he/she can be mentored through one MedInfo cycle.
