I agree enthusiastically with Adrian's advice assuming that one of the goals for OSHCA is being a catalyst for change. Building on these thoughts a first order of business would be a frank discussion of what we did right and what could be improved on vis a vis the first iteration of OSHCA.

Molly, It seems like you have gotten quite a few more than 4 emails! But I think you mean that you need more help then just votes of support! Could you tell us what you do need? If you were to take the lead and simply sort out what needs to be done I am sure that different members of this group

Obviously I would love to help, as an intial committee member, or in any other fashion as appropriate. I think we should not start a new mailing list. The openhealth list has the same goals as the OSHCA organization, and already has considerable membership. By the same token I would advise the we

Molly, You can count me in for the committee... I have also exchanged email with Mike McCoy and he is willing to lend a hand. For those on this list who don't know Mike, he recently retired as the CIO of the UCLA Medical Centre and Medical School. He sponsored OSHCA 2002 in Los Angeles and is

Hi Molly, Since last week, I had discussed with Brian Bray the transfer of OSHCA.org to OSHCA if we agree to start the process of reviving OSHCA and he has agreed to this. I agree and support the idea, although I will not have the time to actively contribute and don't know if I will be able
