Management of Medical Manpower: Reflectingon the Worrisome Power of Social Networks

A s we all know, in order for asociety to function smoothly, itis crucial for its members to be

well educated, well mannered and wellinformed. In our digital age, this para-digm is all the more current.

Information is increasingly trans-mitted on platforms such as Facebook,Twitter and Instagram. We use thesesocial media to exchange stories, ideasand opinions.

Recently, a group of researchersdirected by Michela Del Vicario focusedon the behaviours of Facebook users from2010 to 2014. They found that peoplewere grouped into communities thatshare the same ideas and among whomconspiracy theories spread very rapidly. Ingeneral, Facebook users tend to subscribeto and share information that reinforcestheir opinions, and not that which chal-lenges them by demonstrating points ofview other than their own on any giventopic. In a few short hours, a polarizedmessage exchanged among memberscan be blown out of proportion, givingrise to a torrent of words that are oftenquite biased. As a result, we see theappearance of rumours, the spread ofinaccurate information, and sometimes,even of disinformation. To summarize, byavoiding challenging opinions that differfrom their own and especially by sharingbeliefs whose truth is doubtful, peoplebecome increasingly convinced that theirpreconceived notions are well founded.

Throughout history, the spread oferroneous information and the use ofdisinformation have led to the radicaliza-tion of certain groups. More specifically,in our times, we have to admit that socialmedia have allowed this sort of occur-rence to reach an entirely different level.One of the more worrisome conclusionsreached by the group of researchers isthat when there is a “group think”mindset, any efforts aimed at debunkingfalsehoods that are circulating within thegroup will serve only to strengthen andharden positions.

The panic that has taken hold in theQuébecois medical world over the lastfew months is a perfect example of thephenomenon of spreading falsehoodsthat I just described above.

I would like to caution all Québecoisgeneral practitioners to be wary of thecontent of certain messages that arecirculating on social media about themanagement of medical manpower. Iwould also like to denounce the inaccu-rate and too often untruthful informa-tion that has been spreading for sometime on this subject. Everything that hasrecently been said, reported, inventedand carried on these networks withregard to the PEMs, PREMs and AMPscan be alarming for residents and youngphysicians. We can understand howsome of them feel that they are thetarget of a conspiracy on the part oftheir representatives or their colleaguesalready in practice.

Of course I recognize the usefulness of socialmedia, but one must carefully examine the sourcesof the information. It is true that it has becomedifficult to distinguish truth from falsehood whenwe are bombarded from all sides by so muchdisparate information.

We have been taught to reason using evidence-based data from certified bodies, but when itcomes to debates of ideas concerning the future ofour profession, the most far-fetched ideas fly infrom all over and lead to divisiveness. This runscounter to what we need - we are a group thatrequires cohesion for the well being of itsmembers, and all the more so for the well being ofthe general public who we physicians have theright and privilege to serve.

Yes, I like social media, but we have the obliga-tion to create the best mechanisms to distinguishbetween facts and falsehoods, regardless of thepassion that is driving us. No matter howmessages end up going viral, a falsehood remainsa falsehood.

My dear colleagues, we are facing great chal-lenges now and in the coming months. I urge allphysicians to remain united and stand strong sideby side.

Michel Vachon, M.D.AMOM President

Editorial… (cont’d from page 1)

A s anticipated towards the end of 2015,there has been an unfortunate, significantslowdown in the monthly registration rate

for the Montreal region. In fact, 5,000 newpatients in Montreal register each month with afamily physician. At this rate, we will have regis-tered 120,000 between now and the end ofDecember 2017. This is well below our target of500,000 patients needed to achieve a registrationrate of 85% for the Montreal region.

How many Montrealers are looking for a family physician?

This is an excellent question. The data providedby the MSSS suggest that 800,000 Montrealers arenot registered with a family physician. However,this number includes several thousand patientswho are living in CHSLDs, as well as those who arefollowed in pediatrics (the clientele of patients 18and under) or in private, unaffiliated clinics. Wemust also consider the high number of universitystudents who reside in Montreal just a few monthseach year.

What should be our primary objective?GACOs (for the French acronym Guichets

d’accès pour les clientèles orphelines – or accesswickets for orphaned clientele) should be ourprimary concern. In fact, although they show whatis most likely an imperfect reflection of the situa-tion in Montreal, their data are the only ones thatgive us an indication of the number of Montrealerswho are registered there and are still waiting to be

taken in as a patient by afamily physician. What isthis number? 63,000.

In my opinion, this isour primary objective. Ifeach Montreal physicianregistered 30 patientsfrom the GACOs in thenext six months, i.e.approximately twopatients per week, thewickets would be emptywell before the end ofthe year. This would senda clear message thatMontreal physicians aretaking seriously the achievement of the targetsagreed with the MSSS in May 2015.

Time is of the essence. The contribution of eachand every one of us is of the utmost importance.Registration and following of patients are theresponsibility of family physicians and must be ourpriority. I remind you that if you register 500patients, then, starting this spring, you will benefitfrom increased remuneration that will be introducedwith the new nomenclature for office practice.

Honouring a Great Builder

A t its Council meeting on December 12, 2015, the FMOQhonoured Dr. Marc-André Asselin by naming him anemeritus member. He was recognized in particular for

“the major role he played on the scene of the medical unionmovement.” As we will recall, the former president of AMOM alsosat on the Executive of the FMOQ for 18 years and, among otherpositions, he served as the first vice-president from 2007 to 2013.

Dr. Asselin is the author of La petite histoire d’une grande associa-tion, which covers the first 50 years of AMOM (1961 to 2011) andof De praticiens à spécialistes en médecine de famille, which recordsthe history of the FMOQ from 1963 to 2013. Dr. Asselin, a physician

who demonstrated great commitment tohis peers, accepted this honour with themodesty for which he was known. Dr. Asselin retired from practicing familymedicine in September 2015.

OMNI salutes the man, the familyphysician, the union leader and thewriter!

T he AMOM Annual General Meeting took placeon November 20, 2015.

As usual, the meeting was preceded by amedical training session. This year, the topics werewound management, treatment of diabetes in 2015and care and treatment of kidney failure. The sessionwas attended by over 120 general practitioners. Inparallel, a conference on adapted access gave 30participants the opportunity to better understandthe principles and objectives of this new approach.

During the meeting, which began at 5:30 p.m.,Dr. Marie-Pierre Laflamme, Secretary, Dr. BenoîtBrodeur, Treasurer and Dr. Michel Vachon, Presi-dent, gave their respective reports and commentedon them, where applicable. Dr. Daniel Rouette,who chairs the regional training committee, thenreported on the main issues related to training andDr. Marc Gagné presented the work carried out todate by the committee responsible for follow up onaccessibility. He reaffirmed the importance ofmeeting the targets set by the Ministry in order toavoid the fines of Bill 20 and to respect our commit-ment to the general public.

As part of his annualtour, Dr. Louis Godinspoke to AMOM membersat the Annual GeneralMeeting about the mainevents and issues of thepast months. The topics ofnote raised during theFMOQ president’s pre -sentation included the PEM-PREM, agreement onaccessibility, and improve-ments to the new nomen-clature.

The day came to a close with an excellentdinner during which the AMOM president tookthe opportunity to warmly thank those physicianswho have been in active practice for 50 years.

50 Years in Practice… Bravo!

I t is always a great pleasure for AMOM to pay tribute to its members who have been in active practice for 50 years.

This year, six physicians were recognized for their outstanding devotion to the citizens of Québecand for their professionalism: Dr. Victor Bardagi, Dr. J-André Boyer, Dr. Carl Coiteux, Dr. FrançoisDesroches, Dr. Pierre Granger and Dr. Jean-Pierre Teolis.

Dr. Bardagi and Dr. Granger were able to join us at the dinner, where Dr. Michel Vachon presentedthem with honorary plaques.

We wish to express our sincere congratulations to them!

Please read the inspiring speech that Dr. Victor Bardagi gave last October to medical students atUniversité de Montréal that appears on next page.

A t the end of 2015, a major change wasintroduced to the CQDPCM (Conseilquébécois de développement professional

continu des médecins) code of ethics. This newcode stipulates that resource people associatedwith an accredited training program may nolonger be paid directly by partner organizations.The new code thus seeks to avoid any bias orappearance of commercial bias.

This very laudable initiative does, however,involve many obstacles in its implementation.Various administrative, legal and tax issues have tobe settled before the code can come into effect.Therefore it will come into force on July 1, 2016instead of January 1, 2016, for all demandsreferred to l’AMOM.

The main stakeholders (FMOQ, CMQ, FMSQ,universities, and the pharmaceutical industry) willhave from now until July to address the above-mentioned obstacles and to be able to propose thepath that we must follow to comply with the spiritof the code.

We will keep you informed of developments inthis dossier.

Our primary goalremains to ensure thatour members will haveaccess to quality profes-sional training, free fromcommercial or other bias.

I would like to takethis opportunity to thankthe physicians andspeakers who participatedin the annual conferenceon November 20, 2015. I would also like to thank our sponsors as well asMrs. Danielle Villemaire, secretary of the Associationand her colleague, Mrs. Ann Dupont, for organizingthe conference and for their outstanding ability toadapt to all these changes. Thank you to our localtraining chairs for their commitment to maintaintheir colleagues’ knowledge and for their participa-tion in this transition.

Here’s to our continuing education!

D r. Victor Bardagi has agreed to allowL’OMNI to publish the full text of thespeech that he gave to the students in first

year medicine at the Université de Montréal, onOctober 2, 2015. It is with great pleasure that weshare this with you:

Je suis médecin de famille depuis plus de 50 ans !

Au fil des années, des milliers de patients sontpassés dans mon bureau; j’ai pris leur pouls,leur température, j’ai accouché des centaines defemmes, j’ai suivi la santé de patients de toutesorigines et de toutes classes sociales.

Diplômé de la faculté de médecine de l’Univer-sité de Montréal à 25 ans, je peux vous dire quela vie a été bonne avec moi.

Je pourrais prendre ma retraite…. Mais j’aimetrop ce que je fais pour arrêter.

Si je prends la plume aujourd’hui, c’est simple-ment pour dire merci à tous ceux et celles quim’ont permis de faire mon travail de médecinavec autant de passion.

Je voudrais remercier toutes ces femmes et ceshommes qui m’ont fait confiance, qui se sontlivrés à moi, qui m’ont permis de les écouter etde les rassurer de mon mieux avec mes connais-sances et mon humanité.

Vous me demandez ce qui a changé en 50 ansde pratique ? Plein de choses…. Et si peu à lafois !

Certes, la technologie a grandement évolué : lesmédicaments sont plus efficaces, les outils dediagnostic sont plus performants, les gens sontplus informés sur tous les sujets grâce entreautres à Internet. Mais on n’est pas moinsmalade qu’avant ! Et la société a toujoursbesoin de médecins aussi passionnés qu’avant !

En ces temps de remise en question du modèle desanté au Québec, il est important de garder entête que la santé de « Monsieur et Madame toutle monde » est la priorité de tous les travailleursdu secteur. J’aimerais aussi rappeler qu’êtremédecin, c’est plus qu’un travail ! On ne peutpas être médecin seulement de 9h à 16h…surtout quand une patiente est sur le point

d’accoucher ! Il faut êtreprêt à servir à toutmoment, peu importe sion commence dans lapratique ou si on aplusieurs années d’expé-rience.

Bien entendu, un bonmédecin doit avoir debonnes compétencesmédi cales, mais il doitavant tout avoir d’excel-lentes qualités humai -nes; sinon, ce n’est qu’unhomme de science dénué d’empathie pour ceuxqu’il sert.

J’ai été choyé personnellement et professionnel-lement. J’ai grandi dans un milieu où régnaitl’amour et j’ai plus tard eu de magnifiquesenfants.

J’ai étudié dans de bonnes écoles au collégial,puis à l’Université; je me suis impliqué dansmon milieu, mais ce qui me rend le plus fierquand je regarde ce que j’ai accompli, c’estd’avoir aidé les gens avec passion et humilité.

Je pense qu’il s’agit là de l’essence même durôle de médecin dans notre société. J’espèrecontinuer à le faire encore longtemps et côtoyerde nombreux jeunes collègues aussi passionnés.

J’espère que ces quelques mots sauront inspirerles futures générations de médecins, maissurtout leur donner envie de plonger dans lemonde de la médecine avec passion et d’enfaire une véritable vocation.
