- W299186632 abstract "mia Journal of Emergency Medicine I:2, January 2001 page 3 California AAEM and irs Alternative Stralegy Reply to Letter to the Editor A Antoine Kazzi, MD, FAAEM, FACEP President CALJAAEM American Academy of Emergency Medicine Letter to the Editor: Dr. Kazzi, Your message regarding 0 ' ACEPin recent CaJE.M was offensive to EP's. Panicul3rly, your statement: We also wish to thank its members and its past and current leadership for the outstandig services ,.provided to all EP's on nearly every front ... has no basis in facts. In reality, the actions of ACEP have bun EP's on almost every GonL I understand your desire for working within ACEP to try to move the organiza- tion towards policies beneficial to working EPs. However, I certainly see no reason to make heroes of them. If ACEP has pmvided such outstanding service, why have many of the most pmminent academic ED physicians. including Bob Simon and George Schwartz. chosen to resign. Has AFEP served EP's on the following fronts? 1. Exorbitant membership dues that pay for very high executive salaries 2. High continuing education tuition 3. Position on contract companies 4. Position on due process 5. Position on non-compete clauses 6. Advenismg that, prior to board cenEcation policy cbange, non- board certified EPs should join lo obtain de facto swogate credential for legitimate board cenification 7. Roster of past presidents and board members: ACEP has been the maidservant of the contract gmups. THESE ARE THE BOYS THAT REFUSED TO TAKE A STAND AGAINST CATHOLJC HEALTHCARE WEST!!!! m a t certainly is a front that has served EP's!!!!! Get re& Indeed, it is only on economic and political fronts that belp the bottom line of EP employers in which ACE? has excelled; has ACEP taken a stand that all fee gains obtained through their work be passed thmugh to the EP's? I wish to thank Dr. Goldfarb for his wholebeaned letter because it serves to bluntly remind CAUACEP and CAL/ AAEM members alike, of the depth and intensity of disuust reigning in our specialty. ACEP has given emergency physicians (El's) over the last three decades ample reasons to question the ethics of its policies towards its rank and file and the best interest of the specialty. I ask Dr. Goldfarb and our readers to read between the lines in my letters before jumping to the conclusions which be made. Yes, I commended CAIlACEP for its longstanding senice to EPs. However. I clearly qualif~ed stating this it happened on ''ng!x!y every front in reference to the lack of credible action to end unfair practice conditions that we deplore. I commended CAUACEP and not ACEP, because the two organizations are quite different. A close look at the activity profile and leadership of the state chapter will reveal incred- ible talent and dedication and considerable uiumpbs that we should not deny. Such unfair criticism or denial has deeply compromised AAEM in its ability to recruit the members and momentum we need to achieve the changes we seek Nearly a third of the CAUACEP and EMPAC boards and three of the CAYACEP past-presidents are AAEM members. Calling themlus bozos is certainly not the way to succeed or to break out of the splinter radical self-righteous image we earned when AAEM was founded. One must not deny credit, where credit is due. One otherwise loses hisher own nedibility and would likely fail to r i d anyone caring to listen to hisher grief. To enact the AAEM principles of fairness into our daily practice, we must not omit the bread and butter activity of highly dedicated individuals within the house of ACEP. As indicated by Dr. Goldiarb, we must m o b i i them to our side. Many ACEP leaders suffered agreat deal to promote EM on front &es and in circles that the rank-and-file EPs do not see. Dr. Goldfarb says. It is only on economic and political fronts that help the bottom line of EP employers in which ACEP hes excelled. I urge us to remember that a large number of California groups are demmratic partnerships and benefit directly from those triumphs. Universal faimess in the passage of profit to the cliniciaos toiling at the bedside is an issue we must address sepmtety. continued on page 11 I realize that CAYACEP has taken some recent positive actions like its EP Bill of Rights. However, no enforcement was aaached, so they are only so many words. I will not be in an organization where the president's views are so diameuically opposed to mine. As I said. I have no disagreement with your philosophy of working within ACEP, but these bozos are no heroes to the EP's. I think you must separate a strategy of involvement from one of glorifwion of the enemy.
