THE IMPORTANCE OF ASO MEMBERSHIP

FEATURING DR. BILL GLASSON, CURRENT ASO MEMBER

Former AMA President Dr Bill Glasson has been a member of the ASO for most of his ophthalmology career. He believes membership of the Society is an investment every ophthalmologist should make.

“Medico-politcal representation at a State and Federal level is vital.”

THREE REASONS TO JOIN THE ASO

Advocacy

We are your medico-political voice. We are experts in government relations, media and campaigns.

Safety

We protect your clinical autonomy and patient relationships. The battles we fight today are going to safeguard your practice for tomorrow.

Optimisation

We provide the business skills and resources to take your career to the next level.

IT’S YOUR RIGHT TO SWITCH

OUR PRIVATE HEALTH INSURANCE SWITCH CAMPAIGN

Is your private health insurance performing for you?

In 2018 the ASO launched the ‘It’s your right to switch’ campaign to remind every Australian who pays for private health insurance that they can switch funds if they don’t feel they are getting value for money.

The Private Health Insurance Act 2007 protects consumers who want to change to another hospital policy with the same insurer or with another insurer.

I strongly encourage every young Fellow in Australia, in fact every Fellow full-stop to join the ASO.

We can only defend threats from outside influences if we are a united and cohesive organisation. Every new member of the ASO makes us stronger.

As a New Fellow, I joined the ASO because I want to make sure my voice is heard. We are the ones who stand to benefit most from the work the ASO does.
