As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Membership - members of asa include md/dos who are licensed physicians and have completed a training program in anesthesiology, as well as medical students interested in anesthesiology and residents enrolled in an anesthesiology training program. Anesthesiologists practicing outside the us and scientists involved in anesthesia research may become affiliate members. Educational members include nurse anesthetists and anesthesiologist assistants. The society has 60,585 members. The society manages individual and group dues invoicing and processing for asa members. The society maintains a comprehensive member and customer database tracking all sales and transactions with the society.
Publications - asa produces statements, guidelines, and standards which focus on ways of improving the practice of anesthesiology. Additional publications provide information on the various aspects of anesthetic care for both medical personnel and the lay public. A distinguished scientific journal, "anesthesiology", is published monthly, as is the official newsletter, "monitor", which provides general information and news on current issues affecting anesthesiology.
Continuing education - asa sponsors continuing medical education via online courses, tangible products, and live meetings that are designed to advance physician anesthesiologists' current knowledge and build skills on newest clinical developments, technology advancements, and research. Self study courses include two based on a question and answer format: anesthesiology continuing education (ace), and the self-education and evaluation (see), that are used to assess professional knowledge and prepare for maintenance of certification and licensure. Other self-study courses include a journal cme program using articles from "anesthesiology, refresher courses in anesthesiology" an expansion of annual meeting courses, patient safety, ethics, and a variety of e-learning programs on clinical topics. Asa education programs include an annual meeting, the world's largest education program for physician anesthesiologists, offering a variety of sessions and workshops that cover the current topics and emerging science.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2021 to 2022, from $127M to $109M (−14%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
The chief executive listed changed between the FY2020 and FY2021, and between the FY2022 and FY2023 filings.

100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund AMERICAN SOCIETY OF ANESTHESIOLOGISTS.
