It seems like the first quarter of 2023 is flying by! After an amazing and engaging time in Nashville and NAAOP 2023, OPGA continues to be hard at work following up on all the conversations with current and prospective members, supplier partners, and stakeholders. We continue to focus on ways we can continue to help you move the needle on a daily basis. 

We are grateful to have been able to meet many of our members in person, deepen our relationships with existing partners, and meet several potential new partners with innovative products and services. Couple that with the opportunity to discuss strategy and focus with numerous stakeholders from a legislative standpoint, we remain laser-focused on providing additional value to you as an OPGA member.  

The first of those focus items that we are excited to roll out is an expanded educational offering from VGM Education. 

I am pleased to announce that OPGA members will now receive a suite of TEN CE courses (worth over $400), complimentary with their OPGA membership. Many OPGA members have reached out to us to share their need for resources that focus on the business aspect of running a practice. These courses are handpicked with that in mind, and all are eligible for CE credit through BOC and/or ABC. Click here for more information.

One thing is certain: OPGA will continue to listen. In the coming months, we will be announcing and introducing other services, products, and resources from various providers, all designed to provide you with more tools to help you run a profitable and efficient practice. 

As always, thank you for all you do for your patients and our profession. 

 Adam Miller

President, OPGA
