MEDICAL FACULTY ASSEMBLY

NOVEMBER 12, 1996

A Recommendation (1996-97-002):

Whereas, the faculty of the School of Medicine have a responsibility to provide services to the County of Los Angeles at the Los Angeles County + University of Southern California Medical Center (LAC+USC Medical Center) under an agreement known as the County Professional Services Agreement (CPSA); and

Whereas, the current CPSA will expire in 1997 and this agreement is critical to the patient care operations at the LAC+USC Medical Center, which serves as a base for research and educational activity of the USC School of Medicine, therefore:

The Medical Faculty Assembly (MFA) recommends to the Faculty Executive Council (FEC) and the Dean:

That a committee consisting of representatives chosen by APLACH and the MFA be established to work with representatives of the University Administration to develop comprehensive guidelines for the allocation of CPSA funds.
