Board discusses negotiations, primary care

The Doctors of BC Board of Directors met in January, its first meeting of the new year. The Board report provides members with a summary and action items on these topics and more:

• A negotiations update as well as addressing questions from some members who are asking why they do not receive information on what is happening at the bargaining table.
• A discussion about primary care transformation and the need to clarify the roles being played by the organizations and/or structures representing BC physicians, and to work toward stronger alignment between them.
• A new policy on dual directorships for Doctors of BC Board members who also sit on other Boards of related organizations, and
• A review of our committees.
