Changes

The AAP advances the financial and business interests of its members. Hundreds of millions of dollars are paid out by [[Third-party payment| third-parties]] to physicians, including pediatricians, obstetricians, and family physicians to provide medically unnecessary non-therapeutic [[circumcision]] of minor boys. Their slogan is: "Dedicated to the Health of All Children," however the protection of the income of its members fellows ("fellowsmembers") is also a very important considerationoverrides their duties to children. Preservation of that income stream has always been a fundamental policy of the AAP.
