Oklahoma Society for Healthcare Strategy & Market Development 

The Oklahoma Society for Healthcare Strategy & Market Development  (OSHSMD) works to provide educational seminars and networking opportunities that will equip members with cutting edge information on a broad range of topics. We recognize that many healthcare strategy and market development professionals are responsible for a variety of departments and functions in a diverse range of healthcare settings and we work to provide information useful for all. Our goal is to educate and support healthcare marketers and communicators.
