January 3, Norwalk, CT – IDOC is excited to announce new partnerships for 2023 with over 15+ additional vendors to add to its expansive portfolio, while maintaining valued existing partnerships. IDOC partners with over 55+ vendors to provide exclusive pricing discounts, rebate programs, and resources to IDOC members. To see full list of IDOC vendor partners, visit https://idoc.net/partners.

Through feedback from IDOC members, via our new Practice Check-Ins, IDOC listened to members’ needs and established partnerships in key practice areas to better serve the community. IDOC leaned into independent companies in the frame space specifically to provide more options to members.

“This partnership expansion provides new vendor choices to fill critical areas of support for practices and brings new benefits to IDOC’s vibrant community of independent OD owners,” says Ilana Carlisle, IDOC’s Director of Strategic Partnerships.

Beginning January 1, IDOC members can start taking advantage of these new vendor programs and discounts. To learn more about any of the vendors or the new programs, IDOC encourages members to reach out to their Practice Development Manager via new “Practice Check-In” sessions.

“In forming these new partnerships, IDOC looks at key criteria including alignment of core values, mission, quality, customer service, and a focus on independent practices, when selecting what vendors to bring into our portfolio,” says Oliver Spandow, IDOC EVP and CFO. “We feel confident that our new partners will bring great value to our community.”
