Oklahoma Independent Providers Association
GIVING INDEPENDENT PROVIDERS A VOICE!
Where providers have a voice and patients have a choice
Our Three Objectives
OKIPA exists to strengthen independent healthcare in Oklahoma — by expanding revenue options, lowering overhead, and giving providers a unified voice in policy and advocacy.
Increase Revenue
OKIPA vets and connects members to revenue opportunities including ACO/CIN participation, Medicare Advantage arrangements, new health plans, and other business ventures.
Decrease Expenses
Group purchasing power and vetted preferred vendor relationships covering medical billing, credentialing, healthcare IT, banking, real estate, and more.
Advocate for Independent Providers
OKIPA serves as both an association and a lobbying organization. Membership dues fund legislative efforts to keep independent providers competitive.
Membership Includes
- Access to vetted Preferred Partners and vendor discounts
- Legislative lobbying on your behalf
- Member Portal
- Workshops, seminars, and educational events
- Privacy protection — OKIPA's LLC structure keeps all members confidential from the public
Mission & Vision
Mission
Keeping providers independent. We support Oklahoma's independent providers with practical resources, aligned partnerships, and advocacy — so they can remain autonomous while delivering outstanding care.
Vision
A level playing field for doctors and providers with health plans, health systems, and health policies through advocacy. We envision a healthcare environment where independent providers can negotiate fairly, compete transparently, and shape policy.
