HHS coordinating volunteer Physicians, RN's, EMS, etc.

To coordinate the medical assistance offered by physicians, nurses and other health care professionals, the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services is now managing this national medical relief effort.

Physicians and other medical professionals with any state license who can commit to short-term, long-term or rotating coverage are urgently needed in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida and Texas.

HHS has contracted with JCNationwide for this effort. Please call 800-272-2707 or 1-866-KAT-MEDI if you can be of assistance.

Visit the AMA Web site at http://www.ama-assn.org/ for updates on how you can get involved.

That office is only handling physicians, NP's and PA's.EMS are asked to call their satellite Seattle office at 206-652-1573
