OPGA

Orthotic and Prosthetic Group of America (OPGA), formed in 1994 as a buying group for independent O&P facilities, is the largest organization of its type in the country. Forty-two participating manufacturers offer more than 1,000 members discounts they could not obtain on their own.

OPGA has evolved into a member service organization that offers:

• OPGA Insurance - Receive highly competitive insurance premiums on General Liability, Property and Building, Auto, and Worker's Comp insurance.
• OPGA Technologies - Free consulting to ensure you are maximizing your dollars in the areas of local and long distance, cellular service, toll-free service, answering services and telephone equipment and systems.
• opga creative - Available for graphic design and marketing literature and materials.
• Five manuals available to help you run your business more efficiently: Facility Accreditation, Contract Presentation binder, Policy and Procedures Manual, Diabetic Risk Management Program, and our HIPAA manual.
• OPGA Financial Services - Equipment leasing with exclusive OPGA member-only lease terms as well as our new Goldline, a line of credit available to our members.
• HOMELINK – Our managed care contracting department which places 5,000 new referrals to our members each month.
• Discounted purchasing from our OPGA Participating Manufacturers. Click on the link below to view participating manufacturers.

OPGA is now offering our new Profit Enhancement Programs which include:

• On-site business consulting
• Coding/compliance – OPGA will look at current billings to ensure you are not missing codes for services that you provide to your patients.
• Patient Care Clinics - We provide a certified prosthetist to conduct evaluation clinics for your prosthetic patients. This particular program has taken off quickly because of the benefits it offers to our members, both clinically and financially.
