OMHA is a provider-owned and operated not-for-profit organization reflecting cost consciousness by maintaining minimum staff and utilizing members' expertise through our elected Board of Directors and Committees. Policy is defined and decisions are made by the actual owners so accountability is high and the chain of command short. Our streamlined philosophy means we are able to offer the highest level of service at the most reasonable cost.

The elected Board of Directors meets monthly and sets all policy and direction for the organization, creates committees as needed, appoints committee members, and oversees personnel issues.
