Step 2 – Get ApprovalMEETINGS & EVENTS
Must have at least 3 meetings in person, or via technology, per year
• Less formal meetings and events for members who are bought in and truly invested
• Round table vs. large organized event
• Freedom to get to know each other and discuss needs and projects

• Allowing the meeting to develop organically
• Meetings with a defined topic CAN be beneficial• For example, having a Direct Primary Care focused meeting where
you have a guest DPC speaker to talk about DPC and how it works.
• These types of meetings can be very educational – but should not be the only type of meeting you have.
