As well as representing a frightening potential expansion of their oversight, I agree it is an excellent opportunity to provide them some feedback and guidance.<br /><br />I am planning to ask Jennifer Bright (executive director of SHEA) and Neil Fishman (SHEA president) what SHEA plans to do, along with IDSA and APIC, to present some organized response to this RFI.<br /><br />Dan IDan Diekemahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10231929371552334184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066238290370557389.post-972211265823388642010-05-11T09:47:21.961-05:002010-05-11T09:47:21.961-05:00Dan,

IDSA, SHEA and others need to develop a concerted response to this proposal.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08150863240288805485noreply@blogger.com
