Orientation for OPS Office Hours and other Educational Events

ops office hours

With this pandemic highlighting the problems with a fragmented, for-profit health care system, One Payer States is offering OPS Office Hours online to help people find out how they can make a difference.  We are using Zoom videoconferencing, which also gives phone numbers so people can call in, if they don't have reliable internet. 

To see past and planned Office Hour sessions, click on OPS EDUCATIONAL EVENTS tab on HOME page.

How It Works:
  • A moderator will welcome people into the "main room," or “lobby.”  This is where people enter when they click on the meeting link, or when they call in.  Volunteers may choose to hang out here while awaiting guests.  
  • Sometimes a scheduled speaker will be talking about something we think will interest everyone.  This may be in the main lobby, or in a breakout room.
  • Volunteers from OPS, Physicians for a National Health Program, the League of Women Voters, and other allies will generally be available for group trainings, one-on-one guidance, and small group discussions.  They will go into “breakout rooms” to help guests singly, or in groups with similar interests.
  • A host will be helping move people into the room with the volunteer who can help them.
  • We have a limit of 100 people at a time.  There isn't a limit to how many people can register, but it is first-come, first-served until we fill up.  
  • If you have a burning question, send us an email and we will try to help.  Reach us at  WAITTVT@gmail.com.
  • If you really wanted to hear a speaker or a panel discussion, etc., let us know what you missed and we will see whether it was recorded or whether the person might present again.  Most of our speakers are passionate about their topics and are glad to talk about it more!

Signing up for OPS Office Hours and other Educational Events

We want to be responsive to current events, so we won’t always have a lot of time to publicize OPS Educational Events.  To get on our email list to hear when they are planned, please send a request to  WAITTVT@gmail.com.

Please tell your first and last name, your town and your state.  We’d very much appreciate it if you could also state any health care advocacy organizations with which you are involved.  It would be a bonus if you could suggest topics you’d like to learn about, or other ways we could help.

If you have a group with a specific interest - or you have a specific interest and are willing to recruit a group for a training, let us know at WAITTVT@gmail.com.

Check out whether we have any public OPS Office Hours currently scheduled.  Typically, you will have to register for an event and will get a link for the event by email after registering.

You can check out tips for participating in OPS Zoom events with breakout rooms [Zoom Tips].

Welcome to the team!
