The Society was conceived by a small group of Chinese physicians who met informally in New York City. In 1964, a formal organization called the American Chinese Medical Society (ACMS) was established. In 1986, the name was changed to Chinese American Medical Society (CAMS). The Society is incorporated as a non-profit, charitable, educational, and scientific society. The founders of the Society and the current membership have been guided by the following objectives:
-
To promote the scientific association of medical professionals of Chinese descent.
-
To advance medical knowledge and scientific research with emphasis on aspects unique to the Chinese.
-
To establish scholarships to medical and dental students and to provide endowments to medical schools and hospitals of good standing.
- To promote the health status of Chinese Americans.
