MAY/JUNE 1974 REVIEW

 

Request: $3,777,341

Committee Recommendation: $2,500,000

 

Overall Assessment by Individual Reviewers: Average/Below Average

 

Critique:

The reviewers had great difficulty assessing the proposal submitted by
- the Michigan Association for Regional Medical Programs. ‘Concerns were.
expressed regarding the change in program leadership and whether or not
the current leadership is adequate. Although the RAG has continued to
meet on. a regular basis and at full strength, the reviewers questioned
whether or not they have participated with the same degree of enthusiasm
and the same critical attitude as it has in the past.

The reviewers questioned the relevancy to DRMP of some of the project
activities, and questioried whether the region could realistically
undertake and complete the amount of activity proposed in a year's time.

‘

O£ particular concern to the reviewers was the region's request for
$750,000 in EMS. They felt this was a program designed to develop a

comprehensive state-wide program and thus possibly in conflict with
new EMS legislation.

Another concern was the feasibility of funding an.’ Automated
Peritoneal Dialysis Program. Concern was expressed about the number of

new activities and the region's ability to implement and monitor them
in the time-frame left. :
