Commissioner Lyons agreed with Commissioner Scurlock's <br />views, but believed that doctors get a better deal by being <br />associated with the scholastic society and felt it may be <br />late to do anything about this. <br />Commissioner Scurlock continued to stress that he did <br />not want some outside agency able to involve themselves with <br />our Medical Examiner. <br />Chairman Bird agreed this is a good point, but noted <br />that the college is willing to put forth a very expensive <br />facility for the Examiner to work with. <br />Commissioner Scurlock asked whether something could be <br />inserted in the agreement stating that Dr. Walker's reports <br />and his involvement in the medical exams will be totally <br />directed by and accountable to the county as opposed to the <br />college. He wished to make at least that portion separate <br />so that when it comes to medical records, the Junior College <br />has no influence on the doctor. <br />Attorney Brandenburg believed the college has some <br />funding questions that may enter into this, and we will have <br />to be careful as to our wording. <br />Commissioner Wodtke stated that he values the States <br />Attorney's thoughts on this relationship, and if Mr. Stone <br />feels this arrangement will work out effectively, he <br />believed that he has considered the situation carefully. <br />Chairman Bird pointed out that we are only committing <br />ourselves for nine months at this time, and hopefully <br />Attorney Brandenburg can address our concerns. <br />Attorney Brandenburg believed the Commission mainly <br />wants the Medical Examiner to be professionally independent, <br />and apparently is not concerned about the other aspects of <br />his employment by the college. The Board agreed. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. <br />It was voted on and carried unanimously. <br />.64 <br />OCIN 55 PAGE 1 J 7 <br />GGT 1 y 1983 <br />J <br />
