Australian Salaried Medical Officers' Federation - Northern Territory Branch
The Australian Salaried Medical Officers' Federation Northern Territory (ASMOF NT) represents the salaried and non-government medical workforce in the Territory. ASMOF NT's objectives are to:
- Promote the broad interests of salaried doctors

ASMOF is a federation comprised of branches in all Australian States and Territories. Membership includes all levels of medical practitioners - interns, residents, registrars, hospital specialists, consultants, medical academics, medical administrators and salaried doctors generally.
The Australian Council of Trade Unions recognises ASMOF as the principal union for salaried medical practitioners, ASMOF having affiliated with the ACTU in 1991.
