"Your PFA board has been working..." "...continuously trying to bring you the best value in member benefits." speakers that will educate and entertain you (no juggling, there will not be juggling). The Exhibit Hall will be filled with your favorite vendors and some you may not yet be familiar with, but whom you will definitely want to get to know. Of course there is also my favorite aspect-- getting together with old friends that we don’t get to see nearly as much as we would like to, as well as meeting new ones. Speaking of new friends, we will also be hosting some international guests, more so than usual. That is a testament to PFA’s appeal to pedorthists and prospective pedorthists around the world. Your PFA board has been working hard to give you an organization that protects your right to practice as a pedorthist, as well as continuously trying to bring you the best value in member benefits. We now have two people sitting on the Medicare council; previously we had one. We sent a second representative to ensure our voices were heard at an O&P legislative conference in Washington, DC. Others went to a coding meeting with APMA. All of these things are done for you as a pedorthist by the only organization that strictly represents pedorthists. We are always looking for better values for our members which is why we will be rolling out a new program for your credit card processing needs. Watch your email later this month for more information on that exciting and money saving benefit! We have more projects we are working on and could always use more help, especially on the Publishing, Marketing and Membership committees. For those of you who are members, we thank you for being a part of the PFA family, and to all who read Current Pedorthics, we hope you enjoy this issue. ■ Rob Sobel PFA President Custom Foot Orthotics & OTC's Call today to get started! 800-556-3668 klmlabs.com Current Pedorthics July/August 2016 7
