MEMBERSHIP QUALIFICATIONS

  • Your practice must be a partnership, corporation, company, or other business that is engaged in the independent practice of urology; and
  • is located in the United States of America, consisting of 50 states, a federal district (DC), and five major unincorporated territories.

MEMBERSHIP CATEGORIES

  • Associate Membership – Group practices with 1-4 Urologists and/or Urogynecologists

  • Standard Membership – Group practices with 5+ Urologists and/or Urogynecologists

WHAT ARE THE ANNUAL DUES?

Currently, annual member dues for both Standard and Associate memberships are calculated based on $500 per urologist and/or urogynecologists in each practice. +

Dues subject to change, as approved by the Board of Directors

As LUGPA is a trade association, the group itself is the member, not the individual physicians. We use the number of urologists and urogynecologists as a proxy of the group’s size and revenues. Individuals may not “opt out” of being counted in the number of urologists in the practice.

Many trade associations use verified annual revenues and other metrics to establish the dues amounts. LUGPA uses a simple method that is easy to understand and verify; it eliminates the need for complex formulas based on assets or revenues of the practices and avoids sharing of confidential economic data.

To calculate the dues for your group simply multiply the number of urologists and urogynecologists by $500. Payment is not required to apply for membership; after membership approval an invoice will be sent.

ALL INDIVIDUALS OF YOUR PRACTICE BENEFIT FROM MEMBERSHIP

All individuals in the practice, physicians, physician extenders, administrators and support personnel are included in a urology practice’s membership, and may attend meetings, use the member’s only website and participate in appropriate educational opportunities. 

BECOMING A MEMBER IS SIMPLE

Sign up for membership and sign into an alliance that supports and ensures the success of your independent urology practice. The new relationships you make via LUGPA will last a lifetime.
