I have never attended an OH conference before but am planning on attending this one. Not sure what to expect but it sounds like it should be a great experience.

So happy to hear you don't have the conflict! We're expecting a large crowd based on the amount of tickets purchased already! This is going to be a very fun time in Cincinnati for all of us!
Maybe you can be in the fashion show?? I have one of our leaders who has already volunteered to coordinate it! Yay!
See you there!

I work for the State, currently a computer geek on the Medicaid computer system. I could ask some of my friends who work in the Ohio Health Plan section and see if I can find anything out for you. Just send me a message saying where you live and I will see what I can do.
No guarantees, not official but a starting point.
Hmmm, now I am wondering if the new system we are working on will have features that will allow you to look it up online. Go live is December 2010 for the first part of the system.

Topic: An introduction
I introduced myself to the VSG folks a month or so ago, just discovered there was a board just for us Ohioans!
My name is Jody and I live in Centerburg Ohio and work for the State of Ohio at an office next to Port Columbus. I live on a 70 acre farm with a married couple where we girls raise and show miniature horses, and her hubby grows Christmas trees and holds down the fort when we go off horse showing. If you want to see pictures, I have a website at http://www.stonehavenminihorses.com
Now for the important stuff. I decided to pursue weight loss surgery and began the process last October with an all day marathon of appointments. Got all my required health screenings out of the way and have only six weeks until I complete the six month monitored diet.
My surgery of choice is the VSG which is good since the surgeon said that is the only one he feels comfortable doing on me because of IBS and a bleeding disorder called ITP. I am hoping this surgery will get my weight down to a point where I will be able to show my horses and dogs again, and to drive my horse on the rail trails without feeling so guilty, he is only 33" tall!
