Town Hall a Success

We held a members only town hall meeting last night at BWI Marriott, even though the Orioles were playing the Yankees we had a good turnout.  Our board meet prior to the town hall and I must say it was probably the fastest board meeting  I have attended.

The town hall was a chance to update members on the new Maryland Health Care Laws and their impact on how we  will practice Optometry in the future. I would like to thank   VSP Global for sponsoring the evening.

I highlighted some membership category changes the AOA will be discussing at the House of Delegates at Optometry's meeting in June. Then our Legislative Chair Tracie King did a wonderful job on reporting what had transpired in Annapolis over the last session. We then presented our plan for the future legislatively and even discussed some Third Party Payee plans.

We passed around sign up sheets and filled some Key OD positions. We still need many more so please consider working with us as we go forward into the future.

Talk soon
