As TAPA prepares to transition from TMA to Infinity Management, our new management company, we wanted to take a few moments to update you on some critical website and communication matters. Throughout the upcoming week, TAPA will update the applications and methods for communicating with our members.
TAPA Website
TAPA will be launching a new website and member portal as part of the transition. To ensure your data is accurate, any changes made after 6:00 am on Tuesday, June 28th will not appear in the new database. Please verify that we have the most up-to-date information.
In the new system, you will have more control over your information. Additionally, TAPA has added some new fields to this database. Some of these fields include NCCPA ID, AAPA Number, Speciality, Pronouns, Ethnicity, Active Military (to receive the discount), Specialities, and much more. The best part is you can control most of the information shown in our new member directory!
The website transition will begin in the afternoon of June 28th; intermittent access issues may occur. TAPA will add a disclaimer to our website once the process starts.
Phone Lines
Good news; the TAPA phone number (800.280.7655) will not change. However, during the porting process, there is a chance that the number might be unavailable. If you need immediate assistance before June 30th, call the TMA line at 512.370.1521. If you are trying to get ahold of TAPA on or after July 1st and are having issues, you can reach Infinity Management at 512.688.6029.
Email
TAPAs two generic emails will not be changing. If you want to connect with TAPA staff, you can email Kent Prickett, TAPA Executive Director, at exec@tapa.org or our newest staff member, Angie Stamport, TAPA Administrator, at admin@tapa.org.
Any emails you have that send to @texmed.org might not arrive after June 29th. If you send TAPA an email and do not receive a response within one business day, please call Infinity Management at 512.688.6029 and let them know.
Address/Payments
With the change to Infinity Management, our mailing address will also be changing. TAPA has initiated a mail forwarding from the Austin address to the new PO Box; there is always a chance that things might take longer to arrive via Mail. Our new mailing address will be PO Box 4968, Lago Vista, TX 78645; please update your records accordingly.
TAPA & Infinity Management have been working diligently to ensure there are no hiccups; however, there are always some unexpected things that arise outside of our control. If the transition takes longer than anticipated, we will update the membership via our social media channels.
As always, thank you for your continued membership in TAPA, and we are excited about the change to Infinity Management as our new Management Company. We know that with this change, TAPA will better serve our members and advance the PA Profession!
Sincerely,
TAPA Board of Directors
