Article: Update on Independent O & P Networks

Hello. O & P Business News is planning an article updating the current
state of O & P independent facility networks. If you are a member of a
network(s), we would like to hear from you!

1) How many networks do you currently belong to? Which ones? Are you
planning to join others, or cancel in one or some?

2) What is your satisfaction level regarding the referrals or other
services you are receiving from the network(s) relative to the costs and
requirements of membership?

3) Networks appear to be becoming increasingly competitive with one
another. What do you see as the future of networking of independents in
the industry?
