The request Repost to the O&P listserve of Ron Kidd's of NOMA members is
below.

As a side note, the list has been reviewed and I have been informed that
only 2 or 3 of them are AOPA members.
And of those 2 or three, the word is that some may be out of AOPA.

You practitioners whom may also AOPA members can better determine the
accuracy since you have access via password to AOPA's membership list and
corporate level memberships.

O&P must be separated from DME, and to be more correct, industry concerns
must be separated from professional interests when representing those who
provide O&P care if the best interests of the patient are to be protected.

Those O&P prvoders whom may also wear manufacturer hats must do some soul
searching to decide their positions and what is more improtant to their
patients.

The good news from James Fentons recent post re: Palmetto GBA is the names
of 1622 DME companies and one CPO (now deceased) and fraud abuse culprits
were reported to be all medical supply/DME stores in south Florida.
None are reproted as AOPA members.

It is not to say however, that there are NO DME organizations or providers
who have AOPA memberships.
