Becoming an OMS Key Contact allows AAOMS members an opportunity to get involved in the specialty’s advocacy efforts and provides AAOMS staff with access to valuable “go-to” contacts who have cultivated relationships with key legislators that may bolster the specialty’s legislative and regulatory affairs efforts. OMS Key Contacts can play a vital role in helping to educate and activate lawmakers on legislation, regulation, or other actions on Capitol Hill that impact the specialty.
As a key contact, your involvement may include:
- Adding a name and face to the specialty’s voice on Capitol Hill by fostering an ongoing relationship with your federal legislator
- Helping to shape policy at the federal level by communicating AAOMS’s advocacy priorities through direct contact with federal lawmakers and their staff
