The Reviewers and Panel B members agreed that WVaRMP was a-superior
region, not unlike Maine in that it is a state with few health resources,
many problems, poverty, etc., and that the WVaRMP has quite success-

' fully been addressing these problems. ° |

; / 7 |

The Region was characterized as having strong leadership, an active and
dominant RAG (which is well represented by the sparce health resources
in the area), and a competent, experienced staff...

It was noted that the program enjoys support from not only the University
(the grantee) but also the State Medical Society and State Government

as well. The region was. commended for its ability to attract "outside"
funds to support and expand activities planned and initiated by the RMP.

There were no dissenting votes on the motion to approve the application
in the amount requested. an
