As some countries have continued restrictions on travel, OTA will defer hosting a Guest Nation for the 2021 OTA Annual Meeting and we look forward to reinstating this program at the 2022 Annual Meeting in Tampa, Florida. With that said, OTA is truly disappointed that Colombia will not serve as the Guest Nation, however, we look forward to hosting them at the 2024 Annual Meeting.
OTA will host our colleagues from the Japanese Society for Fracture Repair (JSFR) in 2022 and are excited for the chance to recognize their contributions and achievements.
Membership application fee waived for Guest Nation applications ($50 USD value)
Complimentary 1st year Membership Dues for Guest Nation new members ($200 USD value)
