C. MICHAEL OGLE, DOPresident 2015 – 2016oklahoma osteopathic association

Recently, I participated in the interviewing of candidates for the new executive director of the Oklahoma Osteopathic Associa-tion. After asking many questions of a particular candidate, they were asked, like all candidates, if they had any questions of us. One particular candidate asked, “What is the culture of your or-ganization?” In unison, all five interviewers blurted out almost in harmony “FAMILY.” It was an amazing and telling moment for me about our association. Many other answers could have been given—such as professional, cohesive, dynamic, engaged, trustworthy, respectful—yet the clear answer was family.

We were also asked by several candidates how we as an associa-tion had achieved such success in having the highest percentage of association membership in the osteopathic profession and highest percentage of osteopathic physicians as a part of the to-tal physicians in any state. The answer of course was again the concept of the “osteopathic family.” As the son of an osteopathic physician and cousin to two other osteopathic physicians, this concept came easily to me as it has always been my family. It never fails, at our family reunions, that the physicians eventu-ally all end up at the same table to share patient stories and to lament against the forces outside of our control that affect our practices and lives daily.

Our association is currently challenged by changes that are oc-curring outside of our control, including the need to replace our current executive director, Lynette McLain, as she retires. The reduction of pharmaceutical companies’ ability to participate in our seminars and convention has significantly impacted our revenue. The trend toward corporate medicine and the employ-ment of a significant proportion of our physicians has impacted

our attendance at seminars and convention because the employ-er now must approve time out of the office or hospital. Again, this impacts our bottom line and has forced us to look for new and better revenue streams.

The questions from our recent candidates about our service lines (membership services) prompted me to review what we provide to our members. It struck me that while we are a professional association, charged by our mission statement with advocacy and improving the health care of all Oklahomans, we do much, much more. When the association gets a call from a member having trouble with a payer, for example, or a health care system issue or maybe even an ethical concern about a colleague, many times our staff can help solve the problem, but there are times when the staff does not have the knowledge or expertise to help resolve the issue. But here comes the osteopathic family again. The staff knows that they can contact any myriad physicians in our association that have the knowledge and contacts to assist another member whom they may have never met. Family help-ing family provides the framework for our successes.

As the association leadership tackles the issues presented to us today and in the future, we will only be successful if the mem-bership remains a family, taking our calls and requests for your help as you would do for your own family!

It remains an honor to represent the Oklahoma Osteopathic Association family!

our efforts to create a healthier Oklahoma in all pockets of the state,” said TSET Board of Director Chairman Jim Gebhart. “We know helping people – especially children and families – to develop healthy habits is our first line of defense in changing Oklahoma’s health out-comes. Partnering with Oklahoma State University to recruit more residents to areas where health care is scarce is another facet of help-ing to achieve this goal.”

This grant will consist of bridge funding for the training of physicians in Oklahoma. At the end of the six-year grant, federal health care dollars will be used to support the program that seeks to add more doctors to Oklahoma’s health care system, especially in rural areas.

“TSET funding will ignite a cascade of positive changes for these tar-geted communities, starting with a sustained influx of new primary care physicians, better health outcomes and improved economic fac-tors,” said OSU President Burns Hargis. “All of the dollars from the

TSET, the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust, is partnering with Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences and OSU Medical Authority to support the launch of medical residency pro-grams to place doctors in rural and medically underserved portions of the state with a new grant that began this summer.

The TSET Board of Directors has awarded a six-year, $3.8 million grant to Oklahoma State University Medical Authority to address the critical shortage of physicians in Oklahoma.

“This grant will help ensure that Oklahomans in rural areas have bet-ter access to the doctors they need,” said Governor Mary Fallin. “This is an excellent example of state agencies and the higher education community working hand-in-hand to support the goal of improving health outcomes across Oklahoma.”

“Partnering to bring additional doctors to rural areas complements

grant go directly to these community hospitals. OSU thanks the TSET board for increasing medical training residency programs in the areas of the state where the need for quality primary care is great-est.”

TSET’s grant will fund up to 118 osteopathic physician residents in six hospitals across the state, through a combination of TSET and matching federal funds via the Oklahoma Health Care Authority. Oklahoma has consistently ranked low in access to health care, and 64 of the state’s 77 counties are classified as areas with a shortage of primary medical care providers by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Health Resources and Services Administration.

TSET’s funding will assist the OSU Center for Health Sciences and the College of Osteopathic Medicine in reaching their goal of placing residents in Oklahoma primary care programs specializing in family medicine, pediatrics, emergency medicine, internal medicine, obstet-rics and gynecology, and general surgery.

Funding will be funneled through the OSU Medical Authority to the following OSU residency sites across the state: McAlester Regional Health Center; Comanche County Memorial Hospital in Lawton; Norman Regional Medical Center; and Mercy Health System-Okla-homa hospitals in Ada, Ardmore and Oklahoma City. Each program trains physicians who treat patients from across Oklahoma.

“OSU Medical Authority is proud to partner with an organization like TSET,” said Jerry Hudson, OSU Medical Authority Board Chairman. “Oklahoma TSET’s reputation of positively impacting the health of Oklahomans is without question. Combining OSU Medical Authority’s statewide mission of providing physician train-ing with TSET’s focus on health outcomes is an ideal fusion of pur-pose to improve the lives of Oklahomans.”

Research shows that most doctors will practice within 100 miles of where they completed their residency program. Residency is the cap-stone of medical education and a vital piece of the puzzle to solving the physician shortage in Oklahoma.

“This new money will have a lasting impact on the lives and well-being of thousands of Oklahomans in the form of new doctors work-ing and living in communities across our state,” said OSU Center for Health Sciences President Kayse Shrum, D.O. “We are grateful to the TSET board for recognizing the vital need for new primary care physicians and sharing OSU’s commitment to provide doctors who have a passion for rural and underserved Oklahoma. This fund-ing will be a catalyst for significantly improved health care outcomes across our state.”

This agreement complements TSET’s existing grants with the Phy-sician Manpower Training Commission to recruit practicing physi-cians to rural and medically underserved areas. Under that grant, physicians enrolled in the program can receive up to $160,000 in loan repayment if they practice up to four years in a rural or medically underserved area. To date, 17 physicians have established practices in rural areas and an additional 20 have been recruited to establish rural practices within the next year.

TSET’s grants and the TSET Board of Directors’ strategic plan pri-marily focuses on reducing the leading causes of death in Oklahoma – cancer and cardiovascular disease – by addressing the behaviors that lead to those diseases, tobacco use, physical inactivity and poor nutri-tion. These types of health behaviors account for 40% of a person’s overall health status.

TSET is funded by a portion of the payments received by the State of Oklahoma as part of the 1998 Master Settlement Agreement in which the tobacco industry pays the endowment trust in a long-term strategy to improve health. The funds are placed in an endowment to ensure a growing funding source for generations to come. Only the earnings from the endowment are used to fund grants and programs.

The American Osteopathic Association convened for the 2015 House of Delegates at the Fairmont Hotel in Chicago July 17-19, 2015. The House of Delegates (HOD) brought together osteopathic physicians from every state to discuss resolutions and approve national leadership. The HOD also included several reference committee and bureau meetings, which provided tremen-dous input on resolutions and governing policy for the profession.

The AOA House of Delegates included 467 delegates and 31 student delegates repre-senting state societies, military physicians, as well as delegates from specialty societies. Every state receives one delegate automati-cally. Other state delegate positions are al-located based on the state’s AOA members as a proportion of national AOA member-ship. These allocations are calculated every year. The District of Columbia and mem-bers of the military are also considered divi-sional societies along with the 50 states. This year, Oklahoma was allocated 17 delegates (including one student delegate) of 498 to-tal delegates, effectively constituting more than 3.4% of the national delegation. Only Michigan (55), Pennsylvania (48), Florida

(41), Ohio (33), California (30), New York (25), New Jersey (23), and Texas (21) had more delegates, making Oklahoma the 9th largest contingent. All of these eight states have a population greater than that of Okla-homa, indicating the large proportion of os-teopathic physicians in our state. Oklahoma also had 10 alternate delegates in attendance, including one student.

The House of Delegates meets annually in July to elect officers and discuss and formal-ize a wide range of organizational policies regarding program directors, osteopathic culture, diversity, medical education and ac-creditation, among many other topics.

Thursday, July 16Following the AOA Board of Trustees meet-ing held on July 14, 15, and the morning of July 16, the AOA Credentials Committee and Bureau on Socioeconomic Affairs started things off with meetings July 16 at noon. The Bureau of State Government Affairs met shortly thereafter. That afternoon, the AOA hosted a public policy town hall outlin-ing the new physician payment system. Ray Quintero, vice president of public policy, and Laura Wooster, associate vice president

of government relations, led a presentation outlining this new payment mechanism re-sulting from the SGR Repeal and Medicare Provider Payment Modernization Payment Act, which was signed into law in April. Following the town hall, AOA business con-cluded with meetings for the Committee on Rules & Order of Business and the Bureau of State Affiliate Concerns.

That evening, the Oklahoma delegation met to discuss various resolutions and meetings and to provide a general overview for the fol-lowing three days. At the meeting, Scott S. Cyrus, DO, was chosen by the delegation to serve as a delegate (instead of an alternate delegate) to replace Ronald S. Stevens, who was unable to attend due to illness. The delegation discussed many resolutions, in-cluding resolution H-205 regarding Main-tenance of Certification and Osteopathic Continuous Certification (OCC). The reso-lution would declare OCC to be voluntary and maintain pre-OCC paths to osteopathic board certification and recertification. Den-nis J. Carter, DO, was selected to speak on behalf of our state. The delegation supported the resolution, but it was ultimately rejected by the House. The delegation also supported

H-215, calling on the AOA to oppose any effort to require OCC as a condition for medical licensure, insurance reimbursement, network participation or malpractice insur-ance coverage or as a requirement for physi-cian employment. The resolution also asked the AOA’s Bureau of Osteopathic Specialists (BOS) to review the OCC process to make it more manageable and economically feasible. The measure was ultimately reaffirmed by the House.

Also discussed was Oklahoma’s transition from the UFOS (United Federation of Os-teopathic Societies) to the large state cau-cus, consisting of (now) eight of the largest delegations in the country. The UFOS is a coalition that includes 42 (of generally the smallest) states, Washington D.C., and the military and was established to ensure these smaller states had a balanced role in the AOA’s policies and leadership. Oklahoma’s

transition from the UFOS began in October 2014 and was finalized after a series of meet-ings involving delegation leaders. The Okla-homa delegation selected C. Michael Ogle, DO, as its candidate for the AOA Board of Trustees on Oct. 2, 2014. Many members of the Oklahoma osteopathic family sought the support of national leaders on Dr. Ogle’s behalf. Unfortunately, the state was unable to secure the highly coveted position on the AOA Board of Trustees. Oklahoma’s Ray E. Stowers, DO, rolled off the AOA Board two years after serving as president of the national association. There are a total of 25 physicians on the AOA Board of Trustees.

After the question-and-answer period closed, UFOS moved to support single GME ac-creditation as a whole. Oklahoma was one of nine states within the UFOS caucus that successfully moved to be exempt from this unanimous support. Oklahoma Delegation

Chair David F. Hitzeman, DO, made the motion on behalf of the delegation. Several very small states were absent, but the remain-ing states decided to support single accredita-tion.

Friday, July 17Friday kicked off the first day of the full House of Delegates business, with Okla-homa delegates wearing matching “power purple” ties and lapel pins. A delegate orien-tation was offered for new delegates at 8 a.m. The full House of Delegates convened at 9 a.m. where several reports were provided to delegates, alternate delegates and staff. AOA Past President Dr. Stowers provided the in-vocation. Additionally, the OOA’s retiring executive director, Lynette C. McLain, was recognized at the opening of the House of Delegates meeting by Speaker Ray L. Mor-rison, DO. Speaker Morrison read the fol-lowing as recognition of Lynette’s extensive

record of successful service to the osteopathic family:

“Lynette McLain has been a significant part of the Oklahoma Osteopathic Association since joining the staff in 1973. She was ac-tively involved in the creation of the Okla-homa Osteopathic Educational Center in Oklahoma City, the home of the OOA since 1986. For the past 42 years, she served in various roles before being named executive director in August 1999. As executive direc-tor of the OOA, she is a registered lobbyist for the association; secretary/treasurer for the Oklahoma Educational Foundation for Osteopathic Medicine; and a treasurer of the Oklahoma Osteopathic Political Action Committee. Lynette has also represented the OOA on various committees of the State of Oklahoma, including the Governor’s Task Force on Tobacco & Youth and the Oklaho-ma Physician Manpower Training Commis-

sion. She is a member and past president of the Association of Osteopathic State Execu-tive Directors and has served on a number of American Osteopathic Association commit-tees. Lynette has received numerous awards and recognition for her leadership and ser-vice to the osteopathic profession, including the coveted Bob E. Jones, CAE Leadership Award from the AOA in 2007 and the As-sociation Professional of the Year from the Oklahoma Society of Association Executives in 2000. She and her husband, Don, live in Oklahoma City.”

AOA Trustee Mark A. Baker, DO, presented the AOA’s Strategic Plan then the AOA’s Fi-nancial Report was also provided. Oklaho-ma’s Chief Delegate Dr. Hitzeman provided the report for the Committee on Rules & Order of Business, which he serves as chair. The House then paused for an open lunch period before the reference committees meet-

ings that afternoon, including the Ad Hoc Committee, Committee on Constitution & Bylaws, Committee on Education, Commit-tee on Professional Affairs, Committee on Public Affairs, Committee on Resolutions, Joint/Board House Budget Review, as well as the Bureau of Conventions.

That evening, the entire Oklahoma delega-tion and guests, including several students from Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine, enjoyed dinner at Benny’s Chop House. These students includ-ed Oklahoma’s student delegate, Katrina Lin, OMS-II; Oklahoma’s alternate student del-egate, Owais Durrani, OMS-II; OSU-COM Student Osteopathic Medical Association (SOMA) President Cord Gothard, OMS-II; OSU-COM SOMA National Liaison Officer Gershon Koshy, OMS-II; Sobhan Daneshfar, OMS-II; SOMA Trustee for Re-gion III Alex Smith, OMS-III; and SOMA

Resolutions Director Matt Smith, OMS-IV. The evening kicked off with a short recep-tion that transitioned to dinner where Dr. Ogle, Oklahoma Osteopathic Association president, provided welcoming remarks, and then, every attendee introduced themselves. Following dinner, delegates were encour-aged to attend Oklahoma’s hospitality suite, which enhances delegation camaraderie but also serves as an excellent networking oppor-tunity with delegates from other states.

Saturday, July 18The House of Delegates convened at 7:30 a.m. for the nominations to the AOA Board of Trustees and other leadership positions for the following year. Boyd R. Buser, DO, of Maine was elected AOA president-elect. The morning session continued with a report for the American Osteopathic Information As-sociation Political Action Committee (AOIA PAC) and its role in supporting federal can-didates for elective office. The Oklahoma delegation yet again was proud to have 100% delegation participation (including alternate delegates) and submitted several thousand dollars in contributions to the AOIA PAC. Next up was the A.T. Still Memorial Lecture by Peter B. Ajluni, DO. “Although A.T. Still used different words, his beliefs as a physi-cian aligned with and promoted the concepts of patient-centered care, preventive care, ho-listic care and wellness—concepts that dur-ing his time were ridiculed,” Dr. Ajluni said. “Well, 120 years later, his concepts are some of the most salient medical issues of the day. His vision challenged the status quo, and he saw the unique alignment between the needs of people and what osteopathic medicine of-fered.” Dr. Ajluni is a past president of the AOA.

Many resolutions were heard on Saturday, including H-500, which sought to modify the title of the AOA’s primary administrative officer from executive director to chief execu-tive officer. After considerable debate, the measure was considered and rejected 220-

189. Following a brief recess, the resolu-tion was reconsidered and debated yet again before the House. H-500 was ultimately passed after considerable debate in support of the resolution from members of the AOA Board of Trustees.

Also debated was H-504, authored by SOMA, initially pressing the AOA to modify its Code of Ethics to declare health care is a basic human right. OSU-COM student and SOMA Resolutions Director Matt Smith debated in favor of the measure. Changes were made to the measure by the Reference Committee, and it was referred as amended. SOMA will coordinate with the Council of Student Government Presidents to further clarify the resolution before submitting it for the 2016 House of Delegates meeting.

The House also passed H-305, requesting the AOA to call for an end of the five-year defer-ment period for anonymous sperm donations by gay men. Again, Matt Smith debated in favor of the SOMA-sponsored resolution. The measure also sought AOA lobbying sup-port to amend this policy.

“This resolution aligns with several other res-olutions on equality and fair treatment that have passed SOMA over the past couple of years,” Smith said. “We are very excited to see the AOA stand with us once again on issues of equality.”

At noon, the House adjourned for the House of Delegates Annual Awards Luncheon. At the luncheon, the “STAR Strategic Planning Partnership Award,” “Excellence in Journal-ism Award,” and the “Northrup Award” were presented. Following the awards luncheon, the House continued discussion on a host of resolutions. At 4 p.m., incoming AOA Presi-dent John W. Becher, DO, was sworn in by outgoing President Robert S. Juhasz, DO, and gave his inaugural address. Dr. Becher is an AOA board-certified emergency physi-cian from Newtown Square, Pa. Dr. Becher graduated from the Philadelphia College of

Osteopathic Medicine and is an adjunct pro-fessor of emergency medicine at Thomas Jef-ferson University in Philadelphia.

The day concluded with the Presidential Reception that evening to which all were in-vited.

Sunday, July 19The House of Delegates convened Sunday morning at 7:30 a.m. to continue its discus-sion and review of resolutions. The morning was largely uncontroversial, with the House of Delegates adjourning at approximately 9:30 a.m.
