About OBA For more than 100 years, Oklahoma banks have relied upon a strong and active statewide organization working to address their changing needs and challenges. That organization the Oklahoma Bankers Association today serves 270 member banks. Based in Oklahoma City, the OBA assists its members with government relations, educational programs, legal and compliance services, communications, insurance products and numerous products and services. The Association was created in June 1897 when 25 banks from Oklahoma Territory assembled to organize in pursuit of their common goals. It was 10 years before Oklahoma became a state. Of course, the OBA has undergone many changes over the past century, but it has stayed true to its basic mission of helping banks cope with their common concerns and needs. The OBA works with banks to ensure they have the tools they need to support their communities. We provide fraud training programs to banks at no charge, we bring financial literacy programs to communities across the state and so much more.

The Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA) is the primary entity in the state of Oklahoma charged with controlling costs of state-purchased health care. In 1995, the organization began its mission as the single state Medicaid agency. Also mandated at that time, was the conversion of the Oklahoma Medicaid program from fee-for-service to a statewide comprehensive system of managed care delivery. OHCA developed and implemented two distinct managed care delivery systems, SoonerCare Plus and SoonerCare Choice. In 2003, increased health care costs and inadequate health maintenance organization (HMO) participation in the state Medicaid program prompted the OHCA board to approve a proposal to end its HMO contracts and switch to the state s other managed care system, SoonerCare. The Oklahoma Health Care Authority s main office is located in Oklahoma City.
