CUA in Action
Actively Working for Members
CUA provides urologists with representation on state and national levels. On a state level, CUA acts as a "watch-dog" vigilantly watching out against attacks on our our freedom to practice and fighting burdensome regulations.
Protecting Present and Future
The major objectives and purposes of the CUA are to preserve and protect present and future urological care for the people of California by providing care and keeping up with medical development, implementation and economic support of new technology.
Available to Serve Members
The CUA offers 'hotline' assistance to members with difficulties including insurance billings, or reimbursement infractions. The total membership is currently 475, representing approximately 52% of the State's board certified urologists.
Representing California Urologists Since 1986
The CUA is the largest state urological, non-profit organization that is dedicated to improving patient access and reimbursement for evolving therapies, therapeutic agents, and devices through policy and legislative reform.
Pioneers in Health Policy Education
The CUA leadership was among the first in the nation to recognize the need for organized grass roots advocacy on behalf of patients and health policy leadership education forums for urologists.
Industry Partners & Support
The CUA is on the front lines of many key issues critical to patient access and quality of care. We are committed to building ethical, collaborative and beneficial relationships that help us achieve our objectives. By contributing to the corporate sponsorship program, companies align themselves with the largest statewide urological association in the country. Call Jeannie at 714-550-9155 for more information.
