What Oklahoma County Medical Society does

Oklahoma County Medical Society (OCMS) is a not-for-profit physician membership organization founded in 1889, headquartered at 313 N.E. 50th Street, Suite 2, Oklahoma City. It serves licensed MD/DO physicians, residents, and medical students who live or practice in Oklahoma County, providing a unified membership that automatically includes membership in the Oklahoma State Medical Association (OSMA). Operations are run by a 6-person staff overseen by an elected physician board, with leadership rotating annually across specialties drawn from INTEGRIS Health, SSM Health St. Anthony, McBride Orthopedic Hospital, OU Health, and other major regional providers.

The organization's core programmatic offerings include the Physician Leadership Academy (launched 2010, 100+ physicians trained), the Physician Wellness Program (launched 2017, 200+ physicians supported through confidential counseling), the OCMS Community Foundation (established 1966, funding medical student scholarships and community health initiatives), the OCMS Observership Program for international medical graduates, the Don F. Rhinehart, MD Medical Service Award, and continuous publication of The Bulletin, a legacy medical society periodical in print for over 100 years. Its underlying technology stack is operated on YourMembership.com association management software, integrated with Square payment processing and Facebook/LinkedIn OAuth for member sign-in.

OCMS's revenue model is membership-dues-based, with annual rates of $580 for regular members ($520 with auto-renewal), $302.50 for first-year/new practitioners, $505 for second-year practitioners, $302.50 for partially or fully retired members, and complimentary memberships for life members, active-duty military physicians, residents, interns, fellows, and full-time medical students at OU College of Medicine and OSU College of Osteopathic Medicine. The organization also generates ancillary revenue through the OCMS Community Foundation (community fundraiser beneficiaries, scholarships), sponsorship packages (including four full-page ads in The Bulletin), and event registration fees.

Broad incumbents

• Tennessee Medical Association: State medical society providing comparable physician advocacy, CME, and membership services. Useful as a peer for understanding how state and county-level societies collaborate.
• Texas Medical Association: One of the largest state medical associations in the U.S. with a similar physician membership, advocacy, and CME model, though at much greater scale.
• Pennsylvania Medical Society: State-level physician membership organization with advocacy, wellness, and member service programs comparable to OCMS/OSMA.
• Medical Society of the State of New York: State medical society with similar membership dues, advocacy, and physician engagement offerings, providing a useful structural and operational benchmark for OCMS.
