I see third wold medicine: delayed care, no preventive medicine at all and the revolving doors of the EDs continue to roll: people keep returning back because there is no continuity of care like clinics and programs for the indigent and uninsured. There is more crime and more trauma every day, more people on dialysis a preventable disease, and the list keeps going. Medicine is very focused and specialized, there fore more expensive, but basic care is hard to find for many.<br />From Stockton, CAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37709738.post-64686668206659832182010-09-24T15:06:45.982-05:002010-09-24T15:06:45.982-05:00That's very interesting Dr. Gardner.

The nation’s emergency physicians support the President's health care reform principles and will work to achieve the long-term benefits that reforms should bring. We are asking Congress and Obama Administration to recognize and fund the central role that emergency medicine plays in the health care system."<br /><br />This is an interesting segment, because the ACEP-generated question asks about ACEP and the answer refers to emergency physicians, which is an apparent dodge of the question. Why would you dodge your own question? Regardless, this statement is not true because many emergency physicians, including myself, do not support them, and I personally cannot understand why any physician would support the President’s reform measures. However, despite the dodge, the answer does imply that ACEP supports the proposals. You state that you applaud “his request that Congress take action sooner rather than later”. Supporting Obama’s request for Congress to take action is implicit support of the action he is requesting them to take. Why would any EP who opposes these reforms desire to be a member of ACEP and be represented by you?Aaron Lovingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07701689870187096990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37709738.post-14588443658861475262010-03-19T01:05:18.194-05:002010-03-19T01:05:18.194-05:00Nice fill someone in on and this fill someone in o...Nice fill someone in on and this fill someone in on helped me alot in my college assignement.

In medical organizations the order of priority for me would be something like this:<br /><br />1. Patient welfare<br />2. High quality care<br />3. Ethical business practices<br />4. The welfare of the specialty<br />5. The capability of its practitioners to deliver these<br /><br />Like many teenagers, the specialty of EM seemed to lose its way in its teens in the 1990s when both ACEP and AAEM reversed this order, each in an effort to prove that they were more the provider’s advocate than the other. What got lost was the overriding commitment to the specialty itself.<br /><br />I don’t see how any emergency medicine professional society can claim leadership of the specialty while simultaneously ignoring or actively lobbying against the interests of 40% of its practitioners who fill a critical specialty need. A need that residency trained emergency physicians are unlikely to want to fill or be able to fill anytime soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37709738.post-56716885667116260972010-01-18T14:53:10.342-06:002010-01-18T14:53:10.342-06:00Hi,

Schneider, MD, FACEP, to not have completed a residency in EM?<br /><br />Why is it OK for Andrew E. Sama, MD, FACEP, ACEP's Secretary-Treasurer not to have a residency in EM?<br /><br />Why is it OK for Michael J. Gerardi, MD, FAAP, FACEP, ACEP board member not to have his residency in EM?<br /><br />Why is it OK for Jay A. Kaplan, MD, FACEP, ACEP board member not to have his residency in EM?<br /><br />Lastly, why is it OK for Robert C. Solomon, MD, FACEP, ACEP board member not to be residency trained?<br /><br />You may retort that when these physicians did their residency training that EM residencies were not available. That is NOT the case --- several EM residencies were in place in the mid-70s.<br /><br />There are other "leaders" in the EM field that don't have their residencies in EM --- <br /><br />Members of the board of ABEM itself, for example:<br /><br />Robert E. Collier, MD, Director, American Board of Emergency Medicine --- no residency in EM.<br /><br />Joel M.
