The American Association of Independent Music (A2IM) has announced the launch of its A2IM Artist Pro program, which gives artists access to health insurance and other benefits.

What is it? The program will grant members access to A2IM's Benefits Store which includes health insurance programs and à la carte options, like dental, vision, personal items protection, renters and home insurance, legal services, pet insurance, and more. Artist Pro members will also have the chance to utilize an exclusive network of resources, support, and opportunities that can support their professional journey. Annual membership dues are $99.

In 2022, A2IM launched affordable health insurance for executive members and is expanding on their offerings with the Artist Pro program, which is designed to ensure that artists can tailor their coverage to suit their needs and priorities. Additional services will be added to the A2IM Artist Pro tier. A2IM will offer additional information on the Benefits Store during two webinars on Aug. 9 at 11 a.m. central and 2 p.m. central. 

What they're saying: "We are extremely excited to unveil the Artist Pro program as a testament to our unwavering dedication to empowering and uplifting independent artists," A2IM President/CEO Richard James Burgess shared. "Independent artists play a pivotal role in the recorded music industry, and our mission is to guide them towards success by offering invaluable resources and an array of exclusive benefits."
