About the ILMGMA Member Communication Center

The Illinois MGMA Member Communication Center (MCC), powered by TopicBox, is a private group reserved ONLY for Illinois MGMA members. We expect our MCC to be an environment where our members can go to each other for the sharing of questions and information. We have made this process as easy as possible by allowing you access to the MCC through your own email editor. We do expect MCC participants to adhere to the member code of conduct and participation guidelines to ensure a positive experience for everyone and to help you make the best use this resource.
