2013 FOA Annual Convention
From the Desk of the President
The Florida Optometric Association is pleased to introduce our new website. We hope it will provide our members with access to the latest information and an up-to-date resource to help navigate the changing times within our profession. The FOA strives to bring our members tangible benefits. Our members-only section will offer valuable tools to maximize reimbursements, coding and billing tips to help avoid costly errors and an insight into the legislative issues that we face every day. The on-line form submission feature makes an efficient use of your valuable time away from patient care. The site will also be capable of online registration to personally pay for continuing education events, membership dues, or for contributions to FOA’s PACs and CCE. We will be continually updating the website with new content to keep you constantly informed. The FOA also has a new look in Tallahassee. We are celebrating our new office location located just blocks from the capitol. The office will provide a centralized location for those frequent visits by legislators and a modern, efficient facility our members deserve. These are just a few of the new and improved features of the Florida Optometric Association. For all of our longstanding members, thank you for your patience. To all of our new members, welcome to your new FOA!
Dave Rouse, O.D.
President
Legislative Update
FOA Members:
The following is the path the Florida Optometry Oral Drug Bill [Chapter 2013-26, Laws of Florida] took in the Florida House of Representatives and the Florida Senate beginning January 17, 2013 until April 23, 2013, when Governor Rick Scott signed the bill into law. FOA would like to say “Thank You” to everyone who contributed or participated along the way in advancing our bill across the finish line. FOA looks forward to seeing everyone at the annual convention in Daytona Beach from July 18 to July 21, to celebrate our achievement and to learn the important details regarding the bill.
