The Oregon Medical Association recognizes exemplary members of our community through our annual awards program. Typically, nominations are accepted during each awards cycle, and the awardees are honored at the Annual Conference in the fall. The deadline for submitting nominations is
August 1, 2026.
To be eligible for an award, a candidate must be nominated by a peer, colleague, team or community member with the nomination supported by two to three individuals or organizations. The letter should include specific examples of professional and civic accomplishments to assist the OMA’s selection committee in identifying award recipients. Your letter should be written from your perspective and experience regarding the nominee, providing in detail the individual’s unique and significant contributions.
OMA awards are competitive, and not all individuals nominated will be selected. Being nominated is an honor and signifies that the nominee is highly-regarded by colleagues, patients, and their community. The selection process is confidential; however, nominees who were not selected for an award will be notified of their nomination after the awards program. If a nominee is not selected during the first year of consideration, the nomination may be resubmitted again during the following two years.
Please fill out the form below to nominate a meritorious individual for the OMA Physician Associate-Citizen Award. You may also email your nomination to
awards@theoma.org if you prefer with your name and contact information, your nominee and their contact information, a resume or CV, and a letter of recommendation signed by two or three others. If you have any questions, please email Kris Bilderback, Administrative & Governance Manager, at
kris@theoma.org. Additional information about our awards can be found here:
