Comments from Daniel F. McCarter, MD
Peter,
Wes and I have presented the information (of family team care) again to the medical center (University of Virginia) administration (at their request) and there again seems to be much interest. Wes is planning on discussing this with the compliance people to see if we have their OK or if we need to press a little more on that front.
Our department is working on a grant from the medical center that would help us role this out in a controlled fashion in all of our practices, but I am not waiting for that. I am also trying an end around approach to get approval for me in my office. In the mean time, Karen and I continue to work together as often as we can. It is amazing how much help one person can be, I am really looking forward to the opportunity to go full bore.
