Temple laid out therailroad yard in the Blackl<strong>and</strong> Prairie eight miles east of Belton, Texasin 1881, a town formed around it. The town would one day bear hisname.On October 1, 1892, Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr., a native of Gainesville,Texas, began his career as the chief surgeon of the Santa Fe Hospitalin Temple, Texas. He was only 27 years old. In 1895, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> held acompetitive examination for those who had applied for the vacant postof Santa Fe House Surgeon. Dr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr., of Cameron,Texas, scored the highest <strong>and</strong> was hired.Because of their blossoming friendship <strong>and</strong> Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>'s growing privatepractice, the two doctors entered into full partnership in December of1897. The reputation of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> grew rapidly. Shortlythereafter, they were approached by the What-So-Ever Circle, theTemple Chapter of the International Order of the King's Daughters <strong>and</strong>Sons, a benevolent society, to work in association with their newhospital called King's Daughters Hospital. Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>worked with King's Daughters until 1904.In 1904, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> Dr. <strong>White</strong> opened their own hospital, theTemple Sanitarium, in Temple. Later that year, they purchased <strong>and</strong>converted the ab<strong>and</strong>oned St. Mary's Catholic Convent for use as apermanent hospital. This structure became the nucleus of a facility thatwould consist of 31 buildings scattered over five city blocks. On June28, 1905, Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> Business Manager Fred K. Stroopapplied for a corporate charter for the Temple Sanitarium "for the study,prevention, relief, remedy <strong>and</strong> care of any <strong>and</strong> all human disorders <strong>and</strong>diseases." On June 23, 1906, Dr. Claudia Potter was hired at theTemple Sanitarium. She would become the first femaleanesthesiologist in both Texas <strong>and</strong> the United States.On March 2, 1917, Dr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr. died of a heart attack. Thepartnership was changed on May 1, 1917, to consist of Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr.,his brother-in-law, Dr. Marcel W. Sherwood, <strong>and</strong> Dr. George V.file:///W|/archive/swhpt.htm (1 of 2) [7/10/2002 8:32:19 AM]

Another <strong>Scott</strong><strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> first occurred on August 23, 1933, when the AmericanCollege of Surgeons approved the institution as the first cancerdiagnostic <strong>and</strong> treatment center in Texas.Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. died of a heart attack on October 27, 1940. Thenow-vacant position of President of the hospital was filled by his son,Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr.The hospital entered another phase on December 23, 1949 when it wasreorganized into the non-profit <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Memorial Hospital <strong>and</strong>the for-profit <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Clinic. The name changed again onAugust 15, 1950 to the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Memorial Hospital <strong>and</strong><strong>Scott</strong>, Sherwood <strong>and</strong> Brindley Foundation. The institution wasmoved to its current location atop the hill in south Temple onceknown as Killarney Heights on December 15, 1963.Beginning in 1997, <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> will be observing the Centennialof the formation of the private practice partnership between Dr. ArthurC. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. <strong>and</strong> Dr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr. Any questions about thehistory of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> should be directed to the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong><strong>Archives</strong>.Researched <strong>and</strong> written by John C.

Temple grew up in theluxurious surroundings of a Virginiaplantation <strong>and</strong> was educated byprivate tutors.Warfare soon interrupted this idylliclife <strong>and</strong> on March 13, 1862, Templeenlisted in Purcell's Battery,Pegram's Battalion of the VirginiaArtillery at the age of 18. During the2nd Battle of Manassas, or BullRun, on August 28, 1862, he wasseverely wounded <strong>and</strong> was forced toconvalesce for several months. InPhoto courtesy ofTemple Public LibraryJune of 1863, Temple was promoted to ordinance sergeant in the NorthCarolina Artillery <strong>and</strong> transferred to Fort Branch in North Carolina. Heresigned seventeen months later <strong>and</strong> rejoined the Virginia Artillery.Temple was again wounded at the Battle of Marie's Heights <strong>and</strong>, onApril 2, 1865, he surrendered to Union troops. Within three months hegave his Oath of Allegiance to the Union <strong>and</strong> was released. For the restof his life, he was popularly known as "Major" Temple because of hisservice in the Confederate Army."Major" Temple then went west to Kansas <strong>and</strong> gained practical workexperience <strong>and</strong> completed a civil engineering correspondence course.In 1870, he had been employed by the Leavenworth, Lawrence <strong>and</strong>Galveston Railway.By 1874, "Major" Temple moved to Galveston, Texas <strong>and</strong> wasemployed as an engineer <strong>and</strong> surveyor for the Gulf, Colorado <strong>and</strong>Santa Fe Railway.

Temple, Sr.Engineer of the GC&SF.195019601970On June 29, 1881, the division point eight miles east of Belton, Texaswas transformed into a town <strong>and</strong> it was named "TEMPLE", after theGC&SF's chief engineer. Temple wanted the town named for therailroad's construction chief Captain B.R. Harris or even called "MilamJunction" but he was overruled <strong>and</strong> the name stood.Temple married Ida May Shipman, stepdaughter of the Methodistminister-owner of Galveston's Central Hotel, John Davidson, on April5, 1882. They would have two children, Louise Lily, born in 1885, <strong>and</strong>Bernard M., Jr., born in 1887.19801990The Directors of the GC&SF abolished Temple's position on March 1,1884, but he still found employment. He worked as a private engineeruntil 1888 <strong>and</strong> was then employed by the Southern Pacific Railway.From December of 1890 to November 1892, Temple worked for adivision of the Southern Pacific; the Galveston, Harrisburg <strong>and</strong> SanAntonio Railway. He was involved in the construction of the PecosRiver Bridge, one of the first steel cantilever bridges ever constructed.From November, 1892 to August of 1893, Temple worked as theGeneral Manager <strong>and</strong> Chief Engineer of the Galveston ConstructionCompany.

<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Partnership<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialThe <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Partnership189019001910192019301940The institution of<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>was born from themedicalpartnership of tworailroad surgeonsin Temple, Texas.At the boardmeeting of theGulf, Colorado<strong>and</strong> Santa FeHospitalAssociation onDecember 30, 1897, the Chief Surgeon of the GC&SF Hospital, Dr.Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. resigned. The Board of Trustees, at that samemeeting, hired the new firm of Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> Dr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr.to serve as Chief Surgeons. Dr. <strong>White</strong> had been working as Santa FeHospital House Doctor. The Trustees had the Association Presidentissue a bulletin announcing the new changes.As the joint Chief Surgeons of the GC&SF Hospital, Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong><strong>White</strong> split the position right down the middle. They each wereresponsible for half of the medical <strong>and</strong> administrative duties. They alsoshared the authority of the position, both in Hospital Associationmatters <strong>and</strong> medical decisions.This "What's mine is yours <strong>and</strong> what's yours is mine" philosophycontinued into their new private practice. They had matching blackriding horses <strong>and</strong> matching buggies. The Hospital Association salary<strong>and</strong> all medical practice earnings were placed in a joint account at theCity National Bank. Both men drew from this account for whateverexpenses they incurred. At the close of each year, an audit of theaccount was made to determine which partner had drawn the most.The partner who had spent the least would draw out enough so that thetotal deductions of each were the same.file:///W|/archive/swpart/swpart.htm (1 of 2) [7/10/2002 8:32:21 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Partnership19501960There was such acomplete sense oftrust between thepartners that therenever was anyquestion aboutbusiness orfinancial dealings.It is noted that Dr.<strong>White</strong> h<strong>and</strong>ledmost of thecorrespondence <strong>and</strong> business matters. Mr. Fred K. Stroop states in hismemoirs that, at his interview for the position of Business Manager forthe firm, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> said, "If Dr. <strong>White</strong> approves of your employment,that is all that is necessary. I am perfectly willing to rely on hisjudgement."1970This trust <strong>and</strong> brotherhood would endure throughout the good times<strong>and</strong> bad. It ended tragically with the untimely death of Dr. <strong>White</strong>, Jr.on March 2, 1917.19801990Return to: <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Centennial PageCopyright © 2002 by <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Hospital <strong>and</strong> Clinic.

<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The Temple Sanitarium<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialThe Temple Sanitarium189019001910192019301940In early 1904, the medicalpartnership of Gulf, Colorado<strong>and</strong> Santa Fe Hospital ChiefSurgeons Drs. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>,Sr. <strong>and</strong> Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr.left King's Daughters Hospital<strong>and</strong> formed their own hospital.They called it the TempleSanitarium, so that there wouldbe no confusion between theirhospital, the Santa Fe Hospitalor the King's Daughters Hospital, which were all located in Temple,Texas.Temple's newest hospital began operations in a house located at 212North Seventh. The house was a two-story residence that was rentedfrom Mr. <strong>and</strong> Mrs. Felix Grundy, who were moving to Galveston,Texas. This temporary facility could hold only six to eight patients. Anursing education program, called the Temple Sanitarium TrainingSchool, was established at thesame time as the hospital. Itsfirst student nurses were thefive student nurses who hadjoined Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong><strong>and</strong> the HospitalSuperintendent, Mrs. CorneliaParsons, in breaking awayfrom King's DaughtersHospital. A sixth studententered the program from King's Daughters later. Also arriving towork for Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> was Waxahachie, Texas businessmanFred K. Stroop. He began his employment, on April 10, 1904, as theirBusiness Manager <strong>and</strong> operated primarily out of the partnership's Cityoffices, which were located in the upper floor of the Temple NationalBank on the northeast corner of Main <strong>and</strong> Avenue A.The two doctors, in early 1904, reached an agreement with Dr. Jamesfile:///W|/archive/tshisty/tshisty.htm (1 of 6) [7/10/2002 8:32:22 AM]

Woodson who had just been appointed as the Eye, Ear, Nose <strong>and</strong>Throat Surgeon at the GC&SF Hospital. The agreement was that Dr.Woodson would also h<strong>and</strong>le the Eye, Ear, Nose <strong>and</strong> Throat (EENT)caseload at the Sanitarium. In addition, he was granted the privilege ofsending his private practice patients to the Temple Sanitarium for care.This worked out well for the Sanitarium, for Dr. Woodson had a largeEENT practice.On June 4, 1904, the TempleSanitarium purchased itspermanent building. Thepartners bought the ab<strong>and</strong>onedred-brick Catholic Conventthat had once housed the St.Mary's Hospital. The conventsat on the northeast corner ofSouth Fifth <strong>and</strong> Avenue F.This lot was across the streetfrom the original King'sDaughters Hospital building. The arrangements for purchase were$1,000 down, in cash, <strong>and</strong> the remaining $4,000 paid in $1,000 annualpayments at 10 to 12% interest. This left the Temple Sanitarium $100in operating capital. That night, Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> Mr. Stroopdecided to renovate <strong>and</strong> add on to their new hospital <strong>and</strong> they spent thenext day, the 5th of June, securing loans to that end.1990Two months later, on September 1st, the renovations were complete<strong>and</strong> the Temple Sanitarium moved into its new home. There was thenbed space for sixteen patients <strong>and</strong> four nurses, who lived at thehospital. By March of 1905, Temple Sanitarium was already lookingfor more space. The first of many extra "cottages" that were built orpurchased, "Cottage 1" contained three rooms for the Superintendent,Mrs. Parsons, <strong>and</strong> the nursing staff, thus moving them out of thehospital in favor of more patient rooms. The other three rooms werefor patient overflow. Also that year, a five-room house on the otherside of Avenue F was purchased for more patient facilities. On Junefile:///W|/archive/tshisty/tshisty.htm (2 of 6) [7/10/2002 8:32:22 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The Temple Sanitarium28, 1905, the TempleSanitarium filed for itscorporate charter. Its statedreason for existence was "forthe study, prevention, relief,remedy, <strong>and</strong> care of any <strong>and</strong> allhuman disorders <strong>and</strong> diseases."Also in June, the TempleSanitarium hired Dr. Olin F.Gober as an intern. Dr. Goberwould spend most of his workday at the Santa Fe Hospital <strong>and</strong> theremainder at the Sanitarium.Once again, in early 1906, Temple Sanitarium suffered from lack ofspace. A second house across Avenue F was purchased. Like all thebuildings the hospital acquired before it, <strong>and</strong> many after, it was usedfor patient rooms. On June 23rd of the same year, Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>hired the fourth permanent member of the staff. She was ClaudiaPotter, doctor/anesthetist <strong>and</strong> school chum of Dr. Gober's.One of the consequences of all the expansion was that patients had tobe moved some distance. Patients in the outlying cottages had to becarried to the main structure on stretchers that had no wheels acrossmuddy streets, because there were no sidewalks. In the beginning therewere no stretcher-bearers on staff, so the doctors <strong>and</strong> nurses had tomove patients. It must have been a sight to see Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>carrying a patient across a muddy Avenue F.1908 was a busy year for the prosperous, new hospital. Dr. Marcel W.Sherwood, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>'s brother-in-law, became a member of the staff. Atwo-story addition was made to the Main Building. Around this time,Dr. Potter was sent to Johns Hopkins Hospital to study the use ofnitrous-oxide gas as an anesthetic. She returned with all the necessaryequipment <strong>and</strong> became the first doctor in Texas to administer gasanesthesia.In 1910 the Pathology Department, with its own full-time pathologist,Dr. Henry Hartman, was established. Prior to Dr. Hartman's arrival,Dr. Potter did a great deal of the pathology work, along with her manyother duties.In 1911, a new staff surgeon was added, Dr. George V. Brindley, Sr.file:///W|/archive/tshisty/tshisty.htm (3 of 6) [7/10/2002 8:32:22 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The Temple SanitariumThe stone Catholic school building south of the main Sanitariumstructure was purchased <strong>and</strong> refurbished for medical use. Additionalproperties on Fifth Street <strong>and</strong> Avenue G were purchased.The X-ray Department was officially established in 1912 by Dr. R.T.Wilson. It had its own facilities in a four-room cottage. Prior to Dr.Wilson's arrival, Dr. Gober developed the x-ray film at home, in hiskitchen sink, late at night.On December 14, 1913, the construction that combined the convent<strong>and</strong> school buildings under one roof was complete. This connection ofthe structures was accomplished by adding a third story to the convent<strong>and</strong> a second story to the stone schoolhouse. Additional l<strong>and</strong>surrounding the newest Main Building was purchased to relievecrowding. The following year the City offices were moved from thesecond floor of the Temple National Bank to across the street on thefifth floor of the new City National Bank.Tragically, Dr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr. died in his home of a heart attackon March 2, 1917. He was only 45 years old. On May 17th of thatsame year, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> announced that, effective May 1st, the partnershipof <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> had been dissolved <strong>and</strong> succeeded by thepartnership of Drs. <strong>Scott</strong>, M.W. Sherwood <strong>and</strong> G.V. Brindley, Sr. Dr.<strong>Scott</strong> bought most of Dr. <strong>White</strong>'s stock in the partnership from hiswidow, Annie Mae <strong>White</strong>. She kept several shares for young RaleighR. III. Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> then sold the shares to Drs. Sherwood <strong>and</strong> Brindley,thus making them co-owners in the Temple Sanitarium. The GC&SFHospital Association also named Dr. Sherwood as Assistant ChiefSurgeon at the Santa Fe Hospital.Soon after, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> enlarged the Hospital Board of Directors. In thebeginning, the Board had been only Drs. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> Mr.Stroop. Drs. Sherwood, Brindley <strong>and</strong> Gober, now Chief Physician atthe Santa Fe Hospital, were added, making the Board total of five.file:///W|/archive/tshisty/tshisty.htm (4 of 6) [7/10/2002 8:32:22 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The Temple SanitariumThe Sanitarium wasalso burdened withanother loss in staff in1917. Less then sixtydays after Dr. <strong>White</strong>'sdeath, the UnitedStates formallyentered the FirstWorld War. Thirteendoctors, including Dr. Sherwood, <strong>and</strong> thirty-five nurses left to serveoverseas. Dr. Brindley was named Assistant Chief Surgeon at theSanta Fe until Dr. Sherwood's return, when they would share this role.A new staff member was added in 1920. He was a familiar face withan old name; Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr. That same year, Drs. Potter <strong>and</strong>Brindley made their infamous night flight. The two doctors had beencalled to conduct an emergency operation in Irel<strong>and</strong>, Texas. They flewthere in a small plane that the hospital had contracted to use as an airambulance. The sun was setting when the doctors finished the surgery.It was decided to return to Temple, despite the dangers of trees, powerlines <strong>and</strong> an unlighted l<strong>and</strong>ing field. The aircraft itself had no lights,either. They flew anyway <strong>and</strong> safely l<strong>and</strong>ed in Temple, at a l<strong>and</strong>ingfield located between Lake Polk <strong>and</strong> the Belton highway. Dr. Goberhad the l<strong>and</strong>ing strip lit by car headlights <strong>and</strong> two burning cotton bales.This was the only flight of the air ambulance. It was destroyed later ina crash in Abilene, Texas <strong>and</strong> the pilot was killed.In the early 1920s, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. became concerned that the name <strong>and</strong>memory of his beloved friend would be lost to the institution forever.He proposed to the Board of Directors that the Temple Sanitarium'sname be changed to the Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong> Memorial Hospital. TheBoard voted him down, stating the neither of the founders' namesshould be lost. With this decided, on October 13, 1922, the institution'sname changed to <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital.Return to: <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Centennial Pagefile:///W|/archive/tshisty/tshisty.htm (5 of 6) [7/10/2002 8:32:22 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> his "Hot Knife"<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialDr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> his "Hot Knife"189019001910192019301940When Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. first beganto experiment with the use of the thermalcautery, it was not the latest developmentin medicine. Surgeons had been usingseveral different types of thermocauteryfor about twenty years. The thermalcautery was an electrical device, with anexposed heat-conducting wire at the tip. Itwas used to burn away unwanted ordiseased sections of tissue during surgery.Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> experimented with his daughters'wood-burning set beginning in about 1906to perfect his own cautery knife. Whileboth Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> his partner, Dr. RaleighR. <strong>White</strong>, Jr., were practiced in using the thermal cautery, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>continued to improve <strong>and</strong> refine his skills with the instrument. Hedetailed his use of the Paquelin cautery in appendectomies at ameeting of the Central Texas District Medical Association in 1907.In 1911, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> read a paper he had published, "The Sterilization ofCancer," before the Surgical Section of the Texas State MedicalAssociation. His colleagues' criticism was so harsh that he withdrewthe paper from publication. He even wrote on his personal copy of theJournal that the paper was "so far in advance of popular opinion <strong>and</strong>out of harmony with prevailing ideas that it was withheld." Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>'sunpopular theory was that cancer cells were parasitic <strong>and</strong> that usingthe thermal cautery would kill the parasites <strong>and</strong> sterilize the wound. Inspite of this setback, he continued to speak in support of his theory <strong>and</strong>to support the use of the thermal cautery.In 1915, both Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> Dr. <strong>White</strong> spoke before the Texas StateMedical Association. Dr. <strong>White</strong> reported on the thermal cautery <strong>and</strong> itsuse in the treatment of cancer. He discussed his <strong>and</strong> Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>'s earlyuse of the Paquelin cautery. Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> spoke on "What the PublicShould Know about Cancer." He emphasized the need for prevention,early diagnosis <strong>and</strong> rapid eradication, if cancer was discovered.file:///W|/archive/swcancer/cautery.htm (1 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:24 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> his "Hot Knife"1950196019701980Dr. Claudia Potter,anesthesiologist at the TempleSanitarium, <strong>and</strong> later the <strong>Scott</strong><strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital, assisted Dr.<strong>Scott</strong> in operating with the earlythermal cautery. She had topump a bulb on a bottle filledwith benzine to produce thenecessary temperature. In 1922,Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> published a paperabout his use of the thermalcautery. He did not discuss thetype of cautery he used, or if hestill used the Paquelin cautery, but described his cautery as "a flatplatinum rheostat, which is fastened upon a tall movable st<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong>then connected with an electric-light current carried upon a No. 8wire."Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> continued the article by explaining its use in surgery: "Onetrained assistant, preferably a level-headed nurse, is entrusted with therheostat, <strong>and</strong> given a position st<strong>and</strong>ing upon a stool, where she mayconstantly have the cautery tip within plain view while she alsocontinually keeps one h<strong>and</strong> upon the rheostat control. She is taught justwhat position on the rheostat is necessary for a white, dark red, orblack heat, each of which has a special field of usefulness with whichshe must be familiar."1990In 1923, the Texas StateMedical Associationconcluded that Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> wasthe first doctor to discoverthat a skin incision <strong>and</strong>extensive flaps could becreated when using a thermalcautery, set on white heat.There was no charring of thetissues <strong>and</strong> the incision would heal normally. He was also theacknowledged leader in block dissection for metastatic cancer.Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>'s skill developed to the point that he was conductingmastectomies using only the thermal cautery. He could remove theentire breast <strong>and</strong> never use a knife or scissors. In The Journal of theAmerican Medical Association in 1925, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> stated that the use offile:///W|/archive/swcancer/cautery.htm (2 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:24 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> his "Hot Knife"the thermal cautery in mastectomies resulted in less blood lost insurgery, reduced postoperative pain <strong>and</strong> shock <strong>and</strong> that there wasprimary union of the skin flaps. He found fewer recurrences of cancerat the surgery site <strong>and</strong> a greater number of three- <strong>and</strong> five-year curesthat compared with surgeries using knives or scissors.For decades, the use of the thermal cautery in surgery was the st<strong>and</strong>ardat the Temple Sanitarium <strong>and</strong> <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital. Futuredoctors, such as George V. Brindley, Sr., learned the use of the cauteryfrom Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>. Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. continued operating with thethermal cautery until his death on October 27, 1940.Return to: <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Centennial PageCopyright © 2002 by <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Hospital <strong>and</strong> Clinic.

<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Centennial<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital18901900191019201930After Dr. <strong>White</strong>'s death in 1917, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. became concerned thatthe name of his best friend <strong>and</strong> co-founder would be forgotten. Heproposed during a meeting of the Board of Directors that the TempleSanitarium's name be changed to the "Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong> Hospital." TheBoard of Directors, which included Drs. Marcel W. Sherwood, GeorgeV. Brindley, Sr., Olin F. Gober <strong>and</strong> Business Manager Fred K. Stroop,voted him down on the matter. The Board's counter-proposal was thatthe institution's name be changed to the "<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital," sothat both of the founders would be remembered.The new <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>prospered <strong>and</strong> grew quickly.The Board of Directors wasenlarged to seven members in1923. The new members wereDrs. Victor M. Longmire <strong>and</strong>Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr. That sameyear, Dr. James M. Woodsonmade a proposal to the Board.Dr. Woodson, the eye, ear,nose <strong>and</strong> throat specialist at the Santa Fe Hospital <strong>and</strong> <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>for many years, suggested that he <strong>and</strong> the hospital build a clinic to beused jointly. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>'s fledgling clinic was in desperate needof more space <strong>and</strong> Dr. Woodson wanted to close his city offices <strong>and</strong>see all of his patients at the hospital. The Board approved of this idea<strong>and</strong> building plans for a three-story structure were drawn up.

Mr. Phillips was employed toillustrate scientific papers, prepare lantern slides, photograph <strong>and</strong> filmsurgeries. He was hired, on the recommendation of Eleanora Fry, byDr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. in late 1924. Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> went to the Mayo Clinic inRochester, Minnesota looking for a medical illustrator <strong>and</strong> heard ofMr. Phillips, who was doing postgraduate study with Miss Fry.Phillips acquired his art degree at the University of Washington'sSeattle School of Fine Arts <strong>and</strong> received additional training under MaxBrodel at Johns Hopkins Medical School <strong>and</strong> the Veterans Bureau.The Department of Dentistry was established at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> in1925 with the return of Dr. Wesley B.

It was announced that anew four-story building would be built, which would house doctorsoffices, examination <strong>and</strong> medical testing rooms <strong>and</strong> the medical libraryon the first floor <strong>and</strong> seventy patient rooms on the remaining three.Construction began in 1928 <strong>and</strong> the West Building opened for use inthe spring of 1929.Temple, Texas saw another building open in1929, the Kyle Hotel. It was named forwealthy Beaumont, Texas oilman WesleyKyle, who invested heavily in the project. Dr.<strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. planned the building to house <strong>Scott</strong><strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> patients on the top floors. It wasthe tallest building in Temple.Mr. Stroop commented in his memoirs in lateryears that "the fact that these investments <strong>and</strong>improvements were for the most part paid forout of current earnings during that period shows the institution wasmoving along in pretty good shape."In November of 1929, the New York Stock Market crashed <strong>and</strong> theGreat Depression began. The full effect of "The Crash" did not reach<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital until 1930. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> survived theDepression fairly well by using what Mr. Stroop called "a ratherdrastic policy of retrenchments." The construction plans <strong>and</strong> projects,however, came to a halt during these years. Although growth was at anear st<strong>and</strong>still, change continued.In 1932, Margaret Phillips, wife of the head of the Art Department,was hired as a by-commission employee.

This made <strong>Scott</strong><strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> the first such center in Texas <strong>and</strong> it would be five yearsbefore another Texas facility would receive the same designation. Thisstatus was due in large part to the years of cancer surgery <strong>and</strong> researchdone at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> by Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. <strong>and</strong> others.The decade between 1935 <strong>and</strong>1945 saw the passing of anera. After thirty-one years asthe Business Manager, FredK. Stroop resigned on July 2,1935, due to poor health. Mr.Stroop, along with Drs. <strong>Scott</strong><strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>, were the originalsigners of the TempleSanitarium charter in 1905.Mr. Stroop was succeeded byGeorge Yates. On October 27, 1940, Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr., the "OldChief" to the railroaders, died in his home of a heart attack. Threemonths earlier, he had celebrated his seventy-fifth birthday. Thecontrol of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital fell into the h<strong>and</strong>s of Drs.Sherwood, Brindley, <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr. <strong>and</strong> Longmire.

Dr.Claudia Potter retired after forty-one years as Head of theAnesthesiology Department.About this time, plans were forming to move the institution to a newlocation. Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr., an avid pilot, spotted a hill south of Templewhile flying above town. He believed that this hill was the highest spotin Bell County. Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> regularly drove the two miles from thehospital to st<strong>and</strong> atop the hill <strong>and</strong> dream of a hugh, technologicallyadvancedhospital on that spot, that which could be seen for milesaround. He learned that the hill was part of a farm named "KillarneyHeights," which was owned by Santa Fe freight agent William A.Dolan. Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> made arrangements to have the property, about 340acres, purchased secretly. The Hospital feared that if the sale weremade public, the price of the l<strong>and</strong> would become inflated.October 9, 1947 was the 50th Anniversary of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>. At thepicnic celebration, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr., in his keynote address, announced thepurchase of Killarney Heights. The purpose was to build a new facilityatop this hill. He further stated that the survey work had beencompleted <strong>and</strong> prospective architectural studies were underway.Although Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> announced that construction would begin in 1948,it did not actually begin for several years, because of the intensivefund-raising that was required. Meanwhile, <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> purchasedthe Hawn Hotel in downtown Temple for additional patient rooms.Also in 1948, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr. <strong>and</strong> other major stockholders enlisted theaid of the hospital attorney Byron Skelton, later a Federal Judge, <strong>and</strong>U.S. Senator Lyndon B.

Theygained the aid of hospitalattorney Byron Skelton, latera Federal Judge, <strong>and</strong> U.S.Senator Lyndon B. Johnson,future 36th President of theUnited States, among others.Once they had reviewed allpertinent local, state <strong>and</strong> federal laws <strong>and</strong> anticipated any futurechanges in the tax laws, a plan was set in motion. Each of the threedoctors, <strong>Scott</strong>, Sherwood <strong>and</strong> Brindley, gave $500,000 to the newcorporation's starting capital. All remaining stockholders sold theirshares to the new corporation for long-term, unsecured notes with alow interest rate.On the 23rd of December 1949, the new organization was officiallychartered. It consisted of a new non-profit hospital <strong>and</strong> foundation,which, as a benevolent, educational, research <strong>and</strong> medical organizationcould receive tax-free gifts, <strong>and</strong> a for-profit clinic that would employ<strong>and</strong> direct a modern association of doctors in a group medical practice.The hospital/foundation was controlled by a Board of Trustees, madeup of six doctors <strong>and</strong> three non-medical individuals from the public<strong>and</strong> business sectors.

In the end, theUniversity of Texas Board of Regentselected to locate the school in Dallas,Texas. The thoughts of a medicalschool lingered in the minds of manyTemple residents.Those thoughts bubbled to the surfaceagain in the spring of 1967. The BellCounty Medical Society, of whichmany <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> doctors weremembers, <strong>and</strong> the Temple Chamber ofCommerce established several committees. Their goal was to examinethe possibility of attracting a medical school into the region. In June ofthat year, United States Representative W.R. "Bob" Poage of Waco,Texas continued to encourage the idea during a speech at thededication of the new Veterans Administration Center, later named theOlin E. Teague Veterens' Center, in Temple.Dr. Nicholas C.

Representatives of the two groups met with theCoordinating Board in April of the following year, but the Board didnot recommend that a medical school be established in Temple. Thisfailed to stop or discourage the Temple representatives, however. TheTemple Chamber of Commerce commissioned another study thatstated that Temple was a qualified site for medical undergraduateclinical training. In August of that same year, Congressman Poagegave his continued, unwavering support of the Temple plans. He saidthat Temple should settle for nothing other that a free-st<strong>and</strong>ing fouryearmedical school.1960197019801990The plans <strong>and</strong> ideas for amedical school persistedin 1970. November sawthe chartering of theCentral Texas RegionalMedical EducationFoundation, with Dr.Hightower as one of thesix chartering members.The foundation wascreated to develop medical training programs in Temple.The following year, 1971, was very busy. The CBTCUS notified theVeterans Administration, in February, that Texas was interested inbuilding another medical school. The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Clinic Board ofDirectors asked the staff doctors for their input on the medical schoolideas in September of 1971. While some of the staff were opposed tothe idea, most, like Drs. John D. Bonnet <strong>and</strong> G.V. Brindley, Jr.,favored the idea. Legislation had been introduced by USRepresentative Olin E. Teague of Bryan, Texas <strong>and</strong> US Senator LloydA. Bentsen of Mission, Texas in October of 1971 that allowed medicalschools to be established on Veterans Center grounds. Public Law92:541, The Veterans' Administration Medical Assistance <strong>and</strong> HealthManpower Training Act of 1972, would establish eight medicalschools at VA Center locations in the US. On May 21, 1971, the 62ndTexas Legislature passed State Bill 1028, which had the CBTCUSselect a state institution to apply for VA funds to begin a medicalschool. Representatives from the Veterans Administration, the CentralTexas Regional Medical Educational Foundation, the University ofTexas, the Texas A&M University, the Temple Veterans' Center <strong>and</strong><strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> met in Washington, D.C. during 1971 to discuss amedical school being established in Temple, Texas.file:///W|/archive/thehill/tamucom.htm (2 of 5) [7/10/2002 8:32:32 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The Aggies are Comin', The Aggies are Comin'!On May 1, 1973, the Board of Regents of the Texas A&M UniversitySystem requested that Texas A&M University (TAMU) be the stateinstitution to establish the VA-affiliated medical school. Also in 1973,a medical education program was approved by the CBTCUS, theBoard of Regents of the Texas A&M University System <strong>and</strong> the Boardof Trustees <strong>and</strong> Executive Faculty of the Baylor College of Medicine(BCM) in Houston, Texas. In this program, students could completethe medical training in six years instead of the traditional eight. TAMUstudents would spend two years in undergraduate pre-medical studies<strong>and</strong> then enroll in the medical school. They would complete the firsttwo years in classroom training at TAMU <strong>and</strong> the final two years inclinical training at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> the Temple VA Center.TAMU was selected, on June 8th of 1973, to be the Texas stateuniversity system to run the new medical school program under PublicLaw 92:541 <strong>and</strong> negotiations with the VA for establishment, operation<strong>and</strong> maintenance of the program proceeded. Also, TAMU <strong>and</strong> BCMwere authorized to issue a joint M.D. degree to the graduates.The Governor of Texas, Dolph Briscoe, Jr., signed House Bill #139,the Biennial Appropriations Bill on June 16, 1973. That gave theA&M medical program $350,000 to spend. A month later , medicalschool administrators from the Baylor College of Medicine, theUniversity of Texas <strong>and</strong> TAMU held a conference to discuss theaccreditation of the A&M/Baylor medical school. In September of thatyear, <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> stated that it wished to continue discussionsabout being a part of the TAMU/BCM medical program <strong>and</strong> inAugust, the Temple VA Center declared that it wanted inclusion in theA&M medical school plans.In 1975, the Temple VACenter was granted fundsto renovate buildings onits grounds.

Provisional Accreditation was given by the LCME on October21st of the same year. The LCME expressed reservations about theTAMU/BCM plans. They felt that Texas A&M should be the issuinginstitution of the medical degree instead of sharing a joint degree withBaylor. They also felt that all students in the third year phase shouldattend the Temple campus, instead of half going to Temple <strong>and</strong> halfgoing to Baylor in Houston, as was originally planned. These changeslessened Baylor's impact on the program <strong>and</strong> by May 21, 1977, theBaylor College of Medicine was no longer a part of the TAMUmedical school program.On August 22, 1977, the Charter Class of the Texas A&M UniversityCollege of Medicine was enrolled. Two years later, in July of 1979,those students arrived in Temple <strong>and</strong> began their clinical training at<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> the Temple VA Center. Those same thirty-twostudents graduated as Doctors of Medicine on June 6, 1981.Two years later, the administrative offices <strong>and</strong> the College Station,Texas departments of the College of Medicine moved into a newfacility, the Joe H.

From then on, the students were housed wherever there wasroom. The students spent several years living in Cottages 4 <strong>and</strong> 5,which was on Avenue F, in front of the Main Building. These twohouses were joined by a long hallway at the rear <strong>and</strong> a porch in thefront. This combined building was also called the "Cabbage Patch" byhospital staff. Later, the principle housing facilities for the studentswould be the Senior, Junior, Ara <strong>and</strong> Fifth Street Dormitories.On October 13, 1922, the name of the Temple Sanitarium was changedto the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital. Consequently, the name of thenursing school changed to the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital TrainingSchool.After a lengthy illness, which wasdiagnosed to be incurable by doctorsat the Mayo Clinic in Rochester,Minnesota, Wilma Carlton died inDecember of 1922.

Miss Middleton remained as an assistant until she wasreplaced a year later by another St. Luke's graduate, Laura Jean Elliot.Miss Wright was a strict disciplinarian. She was so strict that herestablished restrictions <strong>and</strong> regulations continued to be enforced untilthe early 1940s, more than ten years after she left <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>!In 1933, Clara Louise Wright wassucceeded by the 1931 Valedictorianof the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> TrainingSchool, Miss Anna Laura Cole. By1944, Miss Cole's title had changedto Director of Nurses. This gave herresponsibility over the nursing schoolas Director of Nursing Education <strong>and</strong>control over all nurses at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong><strong>White</strong> as the Director of NursingServices. She even lived in <strong>and</strong>supervised one of the nurse's dormsuntil 1956. Miss Cole continued inthe dual role until her retirement in Anna Laura ColeDecember of 1969. Upon herretirement, her position was split into the Director of Nursing Services,headed by Miss Cole's assistant Sybil Pargin, class of 1934, <strong>and</strong> theDirector of Nursing Education under LaVerne Gallman, class of 1946.The course load exploded from 288 hours in 1920 to 606 course hoursin 1929. The Training School began to send its students to work at theSanta Fe Hospital in Temple in 1929. New courses were added, likemedical nursing <strong>and</strong> ethics in 1921 <strong>and</strong> courses in surgical technique,pediatrics, psychiatry, orthopedics <strong>and</strong> "special lectures" in 1923. In1924, courses in the history of nursing <strong>and</strong> roentgenology(radiology)were added. It was also during this time that all ladies applying foradmission to the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Training School were required tohave graduated from high school. In 1926, the course "PracticalNursing" was changed to "Principles of Nursing." The practicalexperience of the students was still a good deal of the course. Theywould spend 60 days in medical, 90 days in surgery, 90 days inobstetrics, 90 days in charge of the wards <strong>and</strong> 90 days on night duty.Still more courses were added in 1927 such as psychology, modernfile:///W|/archive/tshisty/swnurse.htm (4 of 6) [7/10/2002 8:32:34 AM]

The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong><strong>White</strong> Training School gained Helen Nahm as a full-time instructor in1928.When the 1930s began, the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Training School wasmuch affected by the Great Depression. The faculty, staff <strong>and</strong> studentsall had to learn how to "improvise, repair <strong>and</strong> make-do." In fact, therewas no graduating class in 1935. Despite all the economic upheaval,the Training School curriculum continued to grow. The Texas Boardof Nurse Examiners (B.N.E.) now required that each student must filea patient case study. This gave the B.N.E. the chance to observe thequality of work of each student. In 1930, two electives, surgery <strong>and</strong>school administration, were added. One of the strains on the trainingprogram was its scheduling. The class scheduling was erratic due tothe fact that classes were arranged around the schedules of the various<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> doctors that were instructing the courses.Under the guidance of Miss Cole, the course load continued toincrease by leaps <strong>and</strong> bounds. On April 1, 1952, the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>Memorial Hospital School of Professional Nursing was fullyaccredited by the Texas Board of Nurse Examiners. There were onlyeight nursing schools in the state with full accreditation at that time.The nursing school moved with the hospital to the new facility atopKillarney Heights in south Temple in December of 1963. It now hadits own dormitory, the Alex<strong>and</strong>er Building, named for the donor,Clyde Alex<strong>and</strong>er, <strong>and</strong> his family.The last class for the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong><strong>White</strong> Memorial HospitalSchool of ProfessionalNursing enrolled in Septemberof 1968. This class of thirtythree,including the first male<strong>and</strong> African-Americanstudents, graduated in 1970<strong>and</strong> the program thentransferred to Belton, Texas.

<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Medical Moulage Collection<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialThe <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Medical Moulage Collection18901900191019201930Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr., President of the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital, wanted wax medical models, called moulages, toillustrate scientific presentations at various medical association meetings. Mrs. Margaret Whiting Phillips, wife of ArtDepartment head, Kenneth G. Phillips, was hired in 1932 as a free-lance artist to create moulages. In 1935, she becamea full-time hospital employee. Her primary responsibility was to make moulages. Mr. Phillips said in his oral historyinterview that Margaret's work "helped put bacon on the table at home."Kenneth G. <strong>and</strong> Margaret W. Phillips came to Temple, Texas on February 21, 1925, theirwedding day. They had been married that morning in Rochester, Minnesota. Mr. Phillipswas hired by Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. to establish an art department at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>.Kenneth G. Phillips was born in Ilwaco, Washington in 1897. He attended the Universityof Washington's Seattle School of Fine Arts. He also received training under Max Brodel atthe Department of Arts as Applied to Medicine at Johns Hopkins Medical School inBaltimore, Maryl<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> at the Veterans Bureau. He continued his medical illustrationeducation with Eleanora Fry at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.Margaret Whiting was born in 1896 in Rochester. She attendedthe Iowa State Teachers College <strong>and</strong> the Art Institute inChicago, Illinois. Miss Whiting gained additional training fromMiss Fry at Mayo's <strong>and</strong> at the Department of Art as Applied to Medicine at Johns Hopkins,along with Ken Phillips. She also worked as an artist in the Mayo's Art Section.The use of wax modeling in art dates back to the artist, Lysistratus in about 300 B.C. Thecreation of wax models in medical applications began in the Middle Ages. During thefourteenth century, Aless<strong>and</strong>ra Giliani of Persiceto, Italy pioneered the wax injectiontechnique. She was a young prosector creating representations for anatomy instruction forMondino de'Luzzi (Mundinus) of Bologna, Italy. Other famous figures who madeanatomical moulages in the Middle Ages were Andrea del Verrocchio, Leonardo da Vinci<strong>and</strong> Michelangelo Buonarroti.file:///W|/archive/swhosp/moulages.htm (1 of 2) [7/10/2002 8:32:36 AM]In the late 1600s <strong>and</strong> early 1700s, creating wax models for medical study found a resurgence. People like Gaetano


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Medical Moulage CollectionJiulio Zumbo, Giovanni <strong>and</strong> Anna Manzolini <strong>and</strong> Ercole Lelli created moulages of human organs, using casts ofcadavers to show anatomy. The Manzolinis completed an entire moulage of a small, young, pregnant woman,including hair <strong>and</strong> necklace. The moulage even had removable lungs, thoracic <strong>and</strong> abdominal walls. English artistsAlice Gretener <strong>and</strong> Joseph Towne also became famous world-wide for their work. The art of wax moulage-makingbegan to wind down in the 1800s, but never completely died out.194019501960At <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>, from 1932 to 1955, the Phillips completed about 3,000 moulages. They followed the U.S. ArmyMedical Museum formula of beeswax, paraffin, cornstarch <strong>and</strong> talcum powder, because the models produced couldwithst<strong>and</strong> temperatures up to 120 degrees F. This was a requirement for working with wax in Central Texas prior tothe invention of air conditioning.1970When creating a moulage, Mrs. Phillips first made a watercolor sketch of the pathology specimen, after it had beenremoved from the body. Then the moulage was cast by Mr. Phillips, from a plaster mold of the actual specimen. Mrs.Phillips later cleaned <strong>and</strong> painted the moulage with oils, using the earlier sketch as a guide.Not only did the Phillips make medical moulages, they also fashionedseventy-five to one hundred moulages of food. These models were used toshow food portions to diabetics.1980Of the nearly 3,000 moulages that were created, fewer than half remain. TheDepartment of Surgical Pathology at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> displays 1,139moulages, while the Hospital <strong>Archives</strong> houses 149 medical moulages <strong>and</strong>only two surviving dietary moulages. This collection is believed to be thelargest in the United States.Art Department1990file:///W|/archive/swhosp/moulages.htm (2 of 2) [7/10/2002 8:32:36 AM]

Moore, F.Schwarte <strong>and</strong> H.L. Sherrill. In 1891, when Texas law changed torequire that the health plan of the Gulf, Colorado <strong>and</strong> Santa FeRailway, one of the first system-wide prepaid hospitalization <strong>and</strong>pension plans, be made a separate entity, the GC&SF EmployeesAssociation was created.On February 17,1891, Dr. C.H.Wilkinson, ChiefSurgeon for theGC&SF Railwayat the St. Mary'sInfirmary inGalveston, arrivedin Temple toestablish thehospital heproposed. He had convinced the GC&SF trustees that a railroadhospital needed to be built in Temple because of its central location.Along with Dr. Wilkinson were Mother Mary Joseph Roussin, SistersMary Teresa O'Gara, Mary Beatrice Ryan, Mary Thomas Kenny <strong>and</strong>Mary Mechtilde Ryan. They were members of the Roman CatholicSisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word at the St. Mary's Infirmary<strong>and</strong> were to be the staff for Dr. Wilkinson.The ten acres purchased by the Temple committee were deeded to theGC&SF Employees Association for $1. The Hospital was chartered<strong>and</strong> opened on June 10, 1891, at what would later become 600 SouthTwenty-fifth Street. The wooden frame, two-story, 165-foot-longbuilding, initially called the "cowshed" by a reporter <strong>and</strong> echoed by therailroaders, was completed on March 2, 1892.

The winner wasDr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr., a Cameron surgeon who had only graduatedmedical school two years prior.19501960197019801990In 1896, a wooden addition that would hold 25 patients was built <strong>and</strong>in 1897, the Santa Fe Hospital bought its first X-ray machine. Dr.<strong>White</strong> was promoted to Chief Surgeon that same year <strong>and</strong> he <strong>and</strong> Dr.<strong>Scott</strong> formed a private-practice partnership. That private-practicepartnership evolved into the present-day <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> MemorialHospital <strong>and</strong> Clinic. The Santa Fe Employees Association continued toemploy the partners as joint chief surgeons for the rest of their lives.Dr. Olin F. Gober was hiredas House Doctor in June of1905. The increased patientload led to the planning of athree-wing, fire-proof red brick<strong>and</strong> concrete structure toreplace the inadequate, originalwooden structure. The mainsection of this new facility wascompleted in December of1908. By 1915, the north wing was added <strong>and</strong> the Santa Fe Hospitalwas finally completed with the building of the south wing in 1926. OnMarch 2, 1917, Chief Surgeon Dr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr. died tragicallyof a heart attack at the age of 45. It was believed that his death wasbrought on by overwork. With the sudden death of Dr. <strong>White</strong>, theboard of the GC&SF Hospital Association created the position ofChief Physician, to supervise the hospital's operations. Dr. O.F.

This organization was an interdenominationalreligious <strong>and</strong> charitable group, in which Maud Sherwood <strong>Scott</strong>, wife ofGC&SF Chief Surgeon Dr. Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr., was an officer.Beginning in 1896, Mrs.Annie Sullivan, a member ofthe What-So-Ever Circle <strong>and</strong>wife of GC&SF ConductorConn C. Sullivan, was askedto care for destituteindividuals who were sick<strong>and</strong>/or injured. The Circlerented a single room, thenthe entire home of a localwidow, who lived on NorthNinth Street near AvenuesElm <strong>and</strong> French. Both theneed for a charity hospital inTemple <strong>and</strong> the crowded conditions of the Ninth Street cottageconvinced the ladies of the What-So-Ever Circle that their hospitalrequired a bigger building. Arrangements were made in August of 1897to rent, for $10 a month, an ab<strong>and</strong>oned Roman Catholic church locatedon the corner of South Fifth <strong>and</strong> Avenue F. The new hospital had sevenrooms that contained ten beds.Dr. Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr., GC&SF House Surgeon <strong>and</strong> future partner toDr. <strong>Scott</strong>, was approached by Mrs. Sullivan about caring for a patient.The patient was a gentleman whose right foot had been crushed at theSanta Fe yards, but who was not an employee of the line <strong>and</strong> had novisible means of support.

<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The First Anesthesiologist<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialThe First Anesthesiologist1890The scientific use of general anesthesia began when English scientistSir Humphrey Davy noticed that the easiest way to administer drugswas through the lungs. Sir Davy found, in 1799, that the inhalation ofnitrous oxide gas, "laughing gas" as he called it, would relieve pain.He19001910192019301940suggested its use during surgery. For centuries prior, the onlyanesthesia was opium, alcohol <strong>and</strong> m<strong>and</strong>rake. Davy's work inanesthesia was continued by his student, Michael Faraday, whostudied the use of ether. While nitrous oxide <strong>and</strong> ether became popularintoxicants, they were not used by surgeons until many years later.Dr. Crawford Long, of Georgia, successfully removed a tumor from astudent's neck in 1842, while having the student sniff ether from atowel. The student felt no pain during the operation. Dr. Long did notpublish his findings until 1849.A Connecticut dentist, Horace Wells, watched a demonstration of theinhalation of nitrous oxide gas in 1844. He noted that the gas freed thepatient from pain. The next day, Wells had one of his own teethremoved with breathing nitrous oxide. He too felt no pain during thefile:///W|/archive/potter/1stan.htm (1 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:43 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - The First Anesthesiologistprocedure. The success of this event led Wells to begin using nitrousoxide in his own practice.19501960197019801990The man credited as the father of general anesthesia was Dr. WilliamT.G. Morton. Dr. Morton, a student of Horace Wells, demonstrated theuse of ether on October 16, 1846. He removed a tumor from the jaw ofa patient before a group of surgeons at the Massachusetts GeneralHospital, Boston.At the same time that general anesthesia was being developed, otherdoctors <strong>and</strong> scientists were developing additional forms of anesthesia.They included local anesthesia, nerve blocks, infiltration <strong>and</strong> topicalanesthesia, spinals <strong>and</strong> epidurals.When Dr. Claudia Potter first beganto administer anesthesia around1904, there was only one methodthat was widely taught in medicalschools. The anesthetist would dropchloroform or ether on to a gauzecoveredwire cone that was heldover the patient's nose <strong>and</strong> mouth.There was always the danger ofchemical burns to the patient's face<strong>and</strong> explosions <strong>and</strong>/or fire becauseof the flammability of the anesthetic.Also, if the anesthesia was used in aclosed, unventilated room, the medical staff could succumb to thefumes <strong>and</strong> pass out.Between 1908 <strong>and</strong> 1910, Dr. Potter was sent by Drs. A.C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr.<strong>and</strong> R.R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr. to study anesthesia methods at the Mayo Clinic inRochester, Minnesota <strong>and</strong> Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore,Maryl<strong>and</strong>. When Dr. Potter returned from Johns Hopkins, she had withher the Gatch-type nitrous oxide-oxygen anesthesia equipment she hadbought. Her use of the equipment at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> made her the firstdoctor in Texas to administer gas anesthesia.For years, Dr. Potter used nitrous oxide in surgeries at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong><strong>White</strong>. She began to utilize ethylene, her favorite gas, in 1924 <strong>and</strong>continued to use it until 1939. She used cyclopropane around 1935 <strong>and</strong>sodium pentothal during World War II. Dr. Potter said that spinalfile:///W|/archive/potter/1stan.htm (2 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:43 AM]

<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - An Old Idea with a New Twist<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialAn Old Idea with a New Twist189019001910192019301940The nucleus of what would become the<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Health Plan beganearlier than most people realize. Theconcept of a health maintenanceorganization (HMO) had been around forover one hundred years. During the lasthalf of the nineteenth century, the Gulf,Colorado <strong>and</strong> Santa Fe Railway offeredits employees a pre-paid medical care <strong>and</strong>pension plan through the GC&SFEmployees Association. The railroaderspaid into the plan monthly, secure in theknowledge that they would get top-of-thelinecare if they were sick or injured. <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> became involvedwith this early form of HMO in 1897 when the partnership of Drs.Arthur C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Sr. <strong>and</strong> Raleigh R. <strong>White</strong>, Jr.was hired as the ChiefSurgeons of the Santa FE Hospital in Temple, Texas.The idea of reestablishing an HMO returned in the 1970s.Representatives of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> the Santa Fe EmployeesAssociation met with members of the United States Department ofHealth, Education <strong>and</strong> Welfare. There were discussions ofcollaboration between <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> Santa Fe in an HMO. Afterseveral years of dialogue, the HMO idea was largely ab<strong>and</strong>onedbecause of the Texas Insurance Code, which banned healthmaintenance plans except those like the Santa Fe EmployeesAssociation.In 1976, the Texas Insurance Code was changed <strong>and</strong> HMOs were apart of that change. The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Special Projects Committeemet on May 26, 1977 to discuss the possibility of establishing anHMO, as well as regional clinics. This committee consisted of Drs.Jesse D. Ibarra, Jr. <strong>and</strong> Robert A. Murray, Financial Director CharlesGendron <strong>and</strong> Clinic Administrator George <strong>White</strong>side. On the 3rd ofNovember, Jamie Clements, the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> lawyer, contacted theTexas Secretary of State <strong>and</strong> reserved the name "Centroplex HealthPlan, Inc." for the developing concept.file:///W|/archive/thehill/swhplan.htm (1 of 4) [7/10/2002 8:32:45 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - An Old Idea with a New Twist19501960The Centroplex Health Plan was incorporated by the Texas Secretaryof State on July 26, 1979. On August 30th of that year, the CentroplexHealth Plan held its first Board of Directors meeting. The doctors onthat historic first board were H.H. Brindley, Sr., G.V. Brindley, Jr. asPresident, Richard D. Haines as Secretary, Jesse D. Ibarra, Jr. as Vice-President, John L Montgomery, Robert E. Myers as Treasurer <strong>and</strong>Kermit B. Knudsen. The other members were Keifer Marshall, Jr.,Drayton McLane, Jr., Charles S. Coates, Charles Gendron, Health PlanFinancial Director <strong>and</strong> Denis A.

On October 13, 1981, the Health Plan received its Certificateof Authority from the State Board of Insurance. This meant that theHealth Plan could begin enrolling members from Bell <strong>and</strong> Coryellcounties.On January 1, 1982, the Centroplex Health Plan, Inc. began enrollingmembers. Employees from <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>, the City of Nolanville,Texas, Tem-Plas Industries of Temple <strong>and</strong> the Bartlett, TexasIndependent School District were the first to sign up. One month later,the Health Plan opened enrollment to the general public.The Health Plan received Federal Qualification on February 27, 1984.This made selling the HMO plan to large companies <strong>and</strong> state <strong>and</strong>federal employees <strong>and</strong> retirees easier. Several months later, on May29th, the name of the Centroplex Health Plan changed to the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong><strong>White</strong> Health Plan.file:///W|/archive/thehill/swhplan.htm (2 of 4) [7/10/2002 8:32:45 AM]

<strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> <strong>Archives</strong> - Texas' First Cancer Center<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialTexas' First Cancer Center189019001910192019301940On a hot August day inCentral Texas, a medical firsthelped brighten the lives ofmany families dealing withcancer during the GreatDepression. The day was the23rd of August in 1933 <strong>and</strong>the medical first, theAmerican College ofSurgeons' approval of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Hospital as the first cancertreatment center in Texas. It was five more years before another Texashospital received that same designation.Cancer treatment <strong>and</strong> diagnosis began at <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> in 1906,when the institution was called the Temple Sanitarium. Dr. Arthur C.<strong>Scott</strong>, Sr., having heard about the use of the thermal cautery "knife,"began trying to perfect his own thermal cautery. He practiced onscraps of wood with his daughters' wood-burning set. Throughexperimentation, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> devised several special techniques for usingthe thermal cautery in surgery for cancer.As the years went by, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong> focused more <strong>and</strong> more of his time oncancer. In 1915, Dr. <strong>Scott</strong>'s address to the Texas State MedicalAssociation was entitled "What the Public Should Know aboutCancer." The theme at the heart of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>'s cancerphilosophy was the prevention <strong>and</strong> early diagnosis of cancer. He alsodeveloped the "shadow test" to diagnose breast cancer. Many peoplecame to the Temple Sanitarium <strong>and</strong> <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> because of itsreputation for cancer treatment.Today, the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Memorial Hospital <strong>and</strong> <strong>Scott</strong>, Sherwood<strong>and</strong> Brindley Foundation <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Clinic continue to bein the forefront of cancer research <strong>and</strong> treatment. The <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong>Tumor Registry, established in 1955 <strong>and</strong> the first of its kind in Texas,recorded 1,796 new cases of cancer in 1995. It has tracked more than36,000 patients since its creation.file:///W|/archive/swcancer/swcancer.htm (1 of 2) [7/10/2002 8:32:46 AM]

Centennial Flag Raising Ceremony--SpeechCentennial Flag Raising CeremonyFollowing is the text from Dr. <strong>White</strong>'sspeech at the Centennial Flag Raising Ceremony . . .In 1897, Doctors <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> established a partnership to practice medicine,based totally on mutual trust <strong>and</strong> respect, operating out of a common checkingaccount. In the event of termination, the assets of the partnership were to beallocated by sequential flips of a coin a most impartial process. Their credo was "Asquare deal for the patient". This was the title of an address by Dr. <strong>White</strong> to theTMA 90 years ago.Today, <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>'s private, not-for-profit integrated healthcare systemoperates on the same principles. All clinic doctors work at <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> on ah<strong>and</strong>shake agreement based on trust <strong>and</strong> mutual respect. No written contracts.Over the past century, "A square deal for the patient" has evolved into our currentmission statement, "To provide personalized, comprehensive, high quality healthcare, enhanced by medical education <strong>and</strong> research". We strive to delivertomorrow's health care today.The occasion of this Centennial year gives opportunity to look back, to see God'sprovidential h<strong>and</strong> expressed in the decisions of visionary leaders over tendecades. Our futuristic founders, at a time when solo practice was king, werededicated to the concept of multi-specialty group practice. This concept remainstoday the foundational bedrock of <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>'s identity.With courage <strong>and</strong> optimism a second generation of <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> leaders in1947 reached far into the unknown future to purchase the l<strong>and</strong> for this hilltopcampus. Not until 1963 did their dreams become realized when, on one day, allpatients moved from the antiquated facilities on Avenue G to these modern towersof therapy. God's blessings were plain to see.In 1949, Doctors A.C. <strong>Scott</strong>, Jr. Marcel W. Sherwood, <strong>and</strong> G.V. Brindley, Sr., in anextreme manifestation of eleemosynary generosity <strong>and</strong> Christian benevolence,donated their private holdings in <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> to establish a new not-for-profitfile:///W|/archive/centennial/flag_cer.htm (1 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:49 AM]


Centennial Flag Raising Ceremony--Speechentity, the <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Memorial Hospital <strong>and</strong> <strong>Scott</strong>, Sherwood <strong>and</strong> BrindleyFoundation. This seminal accomplishment propelled <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> into an era ofgrowth that even the most optimistic never dreamed could happen.More recent leaders have boldly stepped forward on the stage of <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>history to establish, in 1974, a partnership with Texas A&M University, initiating anew <strong>and</strong> better Medical School in Texas <strong>and</strong> cementing <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>'s longdedication to medical education as a means to remain at the cutting edge ofmedical knowledge <strong>and</strong> technology- enhancing patient care.In 1978, another far reaching decision was made -- the first regional clinic openedin Moody, Texas. Again <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> began to change <strong>and</strong> grow. Our specialistson "the Hill" were joined by a new Department of Family Medicine -- that nowstaffs 16 regional clinics serving 35 counties.In 1979, a full decade before "managed care" was on the public's radar screen,our leaders founded the <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Health Plan, another not-for-profitcorporation, providing insurance service <strong>and</strong> health benefits to the people ofCentral Texas. It is now a major driver of current growth strategy for <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>.As the '80's saw development of multiple regional clinics, the '90's have seenseveral of these evolve into secondary hub, multi-specialty clinics -- most notablyin College Station with over 60 doctors <strong>and</strong> a new free-st<strong>and</strong>ing surgi-center, <strong>and</strong>Waco Fish Pond with over 20 doctors.Today, <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> employs 475 physicians <strong>and</strong> scientists -- a long way fromthat original two-man partnership in 1897. Last year <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> saw over 1million patient visits, with half of those in the satellites. Truly God has guided us<strong>and</strong> blessed us.But the occasion of this Centennial year must also challenge us to examine ourfuture. In this era of managed care, <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> st<strong>and</strong>s alone in Texas as amodel of the truly integrated health care delivery system. We have a rare jewel --but we must not shrink from the risks <strong>and</strong> challenges inherent in our future growth.We must pray for guidance that God will "take off our blinders" to see clearly how,when, <strong>and</strong> where to grow, to change, to improve as we enter an even GreaterCentury of seeking to deliver tomorrow's health care today.| S&W Home | Centennial Home | Year in Review | Centennial Flags |file:///W|/archive/centennial/flag_cer.htm (2 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:49 AM]

<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assembly<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyWhat will the future look like, <strong>and</strong> what should America's health care offer in the21st century?That question was the focus in February of a national summit sponsored by <strong>Scott</strong>& <strong>White</strong> <strong>and</strong> The University of Texas' Lyndon Baines Johnson School of PublicAffairs.About 60 medical, governmental, academic, non-profit <strong>and</strong>business leaders from across the nation were invited toparticipate in the <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assembly, which was thekeystone event of <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>'s Centennial Observance. Thegoal of the Assembly, entitled "America's Health: SeekingSolutions for the 21st Century," was to develop a guide for medical practice in thenext century.The Assembly, which took place February 19-22 at the Barton Creek ConferenceCenter in Austin, attracted national attention.At the end of the three-day conference, the participants' deliberations weresummarized in a white paper. The document reflects what participants regardedas the core issues in health care <strong>and</strong> is designed to providelong-term direction for those establishing or refining healthcare systems in the future. It was sent to members of theU. S. Congress, governors, deans of medical schools,editorial page editors <strong>and</strong> numerous others."Health care is in a state of flux today, <strong>and</strong> we believe it isappropriate to take a long-term look at the key factors thatwill drive health care in the next century," says Raleigh R.<strong>White</strong> IV, M.D., chairman of <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>'s CentennialObservance <strong>and</strong> gr<strong>and</strong>son of one of <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>'sfounders.Max Sherman, dean of the LBJ School of Public Affairs, agrees. "With the manyfile:///W|/archive/centennial/assembly.htm (1 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:51 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblychanges taking place in our society <strong>and</strong> in health care," he adds, "it's appropriatethat <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>, as it begins its second century of providing high-quality healthcare, <strong>and</strong> the LBJ School, which is committed to public policy formation <strong>and</strong>administration, are working together to address these important issues."Participants worked in three facilitator-led teams, deliberating the effects oftechnology, demographics, patient-physician relationships <strong>and</strong> medical educationas well as health care economics, public health issues <strong>and</strong> managed care.Facilitators were <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Medical Director C. David Morehead, M.D.; DavidSmith, M.D., president of the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center <strong>and</strong>former commissioner of the Texas Department of Health; <strong>and</strong> Jacqueline Pugh,M.D., associate professor at The University of Texas Health Science Center inSan Antonio. Dr. Smith <strong>and</strong> Bernard Harris, M.D., a former NASA astronaut, wereamong the Assembly's plenary speakers."The Assembly will be significant, because the participants are a very high-calibergroup. Not only will the weight of their collective opinions <strong>and</strong> deliberationsinfluence this institutions' decisions but it also will impact health policy design inthe future," said Dr. <strong>White</strong>.<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> is widelyregarded as one of the bestmodels of modern health care.With 100 years of history <strong>and</strong>a not-for-profit mission ofservice as its compass, <strong>Scott</strong>& <strong>White</strong> is embarking on itssecond century.Representatives from healthcare systems across thenation regularly travel toTemple for a first-h<strong>and</strong> look at<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>'s integrated health care delivery system as they set course for thefuture.An advantage of the Assembly is that the discussions will be apolitical, pointed outDean Sherman. By freeing participants from the short-term issues, partisan politics<strong>and</strong> emotional depth charges that often dominate debates on health care, he said,the Assembly offers them the opportunity to create a vision of what medicalpractice should be.file:///W|/archive/centennial/assembly.htm (2 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:51 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyDavid Warner, Ph.D., the Wilbur Cohen Professor of Public Affairs at the LBJSchool <strong>and</strong> a widely recognized expert in health policy, also was intimatelyinvolved in planning the Assembly. He worked closely with <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong>, Ms.Christian, <strong>and</strong> economist Jon Hockenyos to help devise the invitation list, developdiscussion outlines, <strong>and</strong> divide the participants into three groups with a broadrange of expertise. He <strong>and</strong> Mr. Hockenyos, who is an alumnus of the LBJ School<strong>and</strong> president of Texas Perspectives, an Austin-based economic consulting group,also wrote the white paper, which participants approved by consensus on theAssembly's final day."These people underst<strong>and</strong> thehealth care system as it hasbeen <strong>and</strong> as it could be," saysDr. Warner, the Assembly'spolicy director. "I believe it'simportant that we developsome guiding principles formedical care. We need tofocus on how things should beinstead of short-term answersfor financial or politicaladvantage."By creating a consensus document, he adds, the Assembly participants will charta course for policy makers <strong>and</strong> communities as they work to organize health caresystems, provide better access, underst<strong>and</strong> ethical issues <strong>and</strong> control costs."We're very excited about the event <strong>and</strong> the response of the participants," says Dr.<strong>White</strong>. "As <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> commemorates its first century of service, I can't think ofa more appropriate contribution for this institution to make than to help provide avision for the future of health care."| S&W Home | Centennial Home | Year in Review |Copyright © 2002 by <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Hospital <strong>and</strong> Clinic.All rights reserved.file:///W|/archive/centennial/assembly.htm (3 of 3) [7/10/2002 8:32:51 AM]

<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyCentury<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> CentennialThe <strong>Scott</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>White</strong> Assembly:Seeking Solutions for the 21stPrefaceOn February 19, 1997, 64 informed representatives from business, government,nonprofit organizations, the media, academia, the consuming public, <strong>and</strong> themedical community from across the country convened at Barton Creek ConferenceCenter in Austin, Texas, for The <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assembly, co-sponsored by theLyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs. The Assembly, entitled "America'sHealth: Seeking Solutions for the 21st Century," sought to formulate a vision ofmedical practice in the next century.For three days, the participants discussed projected changes in technology,demography, <strong>and</strong> medical care organization, as well as challenges posed byincreased emphasis placed on outcomes, competition, <strong>and</strong> cost issues. Over thecourse of the Assembly, a medieval economy) to an industrial model, while itshould be squarely in the information age. This transformation into a modern,information-based interactive approach will require significant investment insystems, people, <strong>and</strong> ideas. Without these changes <strong>and</strong> without leadership on thepart of practitioners, medicine will fall short.Articulating our vision of the practice of the future will help clarify the changesrequired in a number of institutions. It seems clear that the system of the future willincorporate some form of managed care - indeed, managed care will be necessaryfor the system to function effectively. The challenge becomes for managed care toevolve to meet the changing needs of all stockholders in the system.In light of the above, medical practice in the 21st Century must have certain keyelements: it must be integrated with many providers, it must be collaborative withpatients, <strong>and</strong> it must be complementary with public <strong>and</strong> private initiatives to ensurethe public's health. Much of this will require improved information, so that thepractitioner can view the patients' care <strong>and</strong> conditions over time, enlist patients intheir own care, <strong>and</strong> participate with other providers in coordinating <strong>and</strong> expeditingcare.file:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (1 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyPractitioners, institutions, <strong>and</strong> health plans also will need to be accountable in thesense that the quality of their care can be evaluated, while at the same time takingadvantage of decision support systems <strong>and</strong> incentives for performance. Above <strong>and</strong>beyond the direct provision of care, it is important that physicians serve a numberof other roles-advocating health promotion <strong>and</strong> disease prevention, caring for thepatient as well as diagnosing <strong>and</strong> treating, <strong>and</strong> helping patients in their final days todie with comfort <strong>and</strong> dignity.Over the past several days the Assembly has identified six key factors that must beunderstood in order to help anticipate the future of medical practice. First is theexternal environment, including demographic <strong>and</strong> social change. Next is the natureof medical practice itself, including institutional, financial, <strong>and</strong> technologicalelements. An underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the role of the patient is essential, as are necessarychanges in medical education. The interaction between the government <strong>and</strong>medicine is explored, including regulatory issues, financing options, <strong>and</strong> publichealth. Finally, the areas in which the health care professions must provideleadership are outlined, concluding with a series of specific recommendations.The External EnvironmentThere are a number of external factors that will help shape medical practice in theUnited States during the next century. For example, the elderly population isexp<strong>and</strong>ing, <strong>and</strong> the aging process brings with it an increasing number of disabilities<strong>and</strong> chronic conditions. Meanwhile, the changing racial <strong>and</strong> cultural composition ofthe US will require a new focus on delivering culturally competent care.Concurrently, lack of health insurance for many segments of the population is aparticularly serious concern.The l<strong>and</strong>scape of medical practice also will be influenced by evolving changes inthe family, such as single parent families, adolescent mothers, <strong>and</strong> an increasedrecognition of the importance of domestic violence. These changes strongly suggesta greater emphasis on children, more convenient <strong>and</strong> coordinated access to medicalcare facilities, <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong>ed social support services <strong>and</strong> dependent care. Theeconomic disparity between upper <strong>and</strong> lower income families also will have serioushealth consequences <strong>and</strong> may widen the health differential between socioeconomicgroups. As the geographic distribution of the US population continues to changeduring the next century, many urban areas will become increasingly populated bypopulation groups with fewer resources, including constrained access to healthinsurance. Meanwhile, changes in employment continuity <strong>and</strong> the ongoingrestructuring of the US economy will continue to affect both health care <strong>and</strong>coverage. Needed services will be provided outside the physician's office orhospital.file:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (2 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyContinued unhealthy behavior patterns in the general population also are ofconcern. In spite of initiatives such as Healthy People 2000, we have not madeenough progress in decreasing the growth in behaviors such as violence, overeating,use of tobacco, chemical dependency, <strong>and</strong> risky sexual practices. Inadequateimmunization rates <strong>and</strong> the resurgence of tuberculosis are particularly alarming. Bythe same token, medical conditions dem<strong>and</strong>ing attention are in flux. Psychiatricillness, particularly depression, is widespread. New infectious diseases emergeperiodically.As our vision of the 21st Century unfolds, the forces mentioned above are but someof the demographic <strong>and</strong> environmental trends shaping the future of medicalpractice.Medical Practice of the FutureWe envision a future system of medical care that goes beyond managed care asfinancing or cost-containment strategies <strong>and</strong> focuses on cost-effective beststrategies. This system includes the following elements:patient-centered, multi-specialty/interdisciplinary team approach in servicedelivery; population-based as well as individual-based prevention <strong>and</strong> treatmentstrategies; emphasis on quality of care measures; incorporating technology intomedical practice; <strong>and</strong> enhanced by medical education <strong>and</strong> research.Patient-Centered, Multi-Specialty/InterdisciplinaryTeam ApproachPatient needs should drive medical practice. Our task should be to help peoplemaintain the physical, mental, <strong>and</strong> emotional capacity necessary to maintain thebest possible health over a life span. Care should be designed to maximize patientconvenience <strong>and</strong> satisfaction. Quality should be measured in patient-centeredoutcomes, such as satisfaction surveys <strong>and</strong> functional status indicators, which arematched to the process of care.Care should be integrated in a manner that presents a seamless system for thepatient. Management <strong>and</strong> coordination of care should be accomplished through amulti-disciplinary team. All the team members need timely access to the medicalrecord. Care includes the efforts of physicians <strong>and</strong> many other disciplines atmultiple levels of care: hospitals, home care, nursing homes, ambulatory care, <strong>and</strong>public health. The patient will be an active participant in the team's decisionfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm(3 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblymaking. The team's primary focus should be a seamless continuum of care.Population-Based as Well as Individual-BasedPrevention <strong>and</strong> Treatment StrategiesThe new medical practice will attain more precision <strong>and</strong> reproducibility by usingstatistical <strong>and</strong> epidemiological tools. These tools foster a broader population-basedfocus <strong>and</strong> enable the medical practice of the future to underst<strong>and</strong> the risk factorspresent in a population (or captured lives) <strong>and</strong> monitor the impact of individualmedical interventions on improved morbidity <strong>and</strong> mortality. Practitioners mustlearn to improve the care they provide through continued analyses of how well theirpatients do <strong>and</strong> through analyses of broader medical practice or practice outcomesresearch.Additionally, these skill sets will position medical practices not only to respond toindividual patient needs but also to anticipate changes in patient demography suchas a burgeoning aging population. In summary, the practice of the future mustsuccessfully manage the care of the individuals who present themselves at the door<strong>and</strong> be concerned about those who have not yet walked through the practice door.The concern is that these "absent" patients will only present themselves at a laterdate with a serious problem in a more costly setting.Emphasis on Quality of Care MeasuresThe new medical practice requires more precision. Practitioners, individually <strong>and</strong> inthe aggregate, must learn to improve the care they provide through continuedanalysis of how well their patients do. Improved management will result from newevidence acquired through exp<strong>and</strong>ed health services <strong>and</strong> clinical research.Clinicians will further analyze their practices as they receive feedback about theirperformance, compared to that of their colleagues <strong>and</strong> to national benchmarks.Yet we have not reached closure on dealing with quality of care measures. A wholehost of agencies/vendors/techniques to measure <strong>and</strong>/or define quality has arisen -National Council on Quality Assurance (NCQA), Foundation on Accountability(FACCT), <strong>and</strong> Health Employers Data Information Set (HEDIS). Providing largeamounts of documentation of disputed value to purchasers of health services placesa heavy financial <strong>and</strong> manpower burden on providers because methods to store,collate, analyze, <strong>and</strong> retrieve information are rudimentary <strong>and</strong> inefficient.Following are areas in which the federal government should provide leadership <strong>and</strong>incentives to facilitate further development: 1) developing st<strong>and</strong>ards for enteringfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (4 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblydata into the record; 2) encouraging development of uniform interfaces/linkages<strong>and</strong> infrastructure (analogous to the interstate highway system) to aid in amassing<strong>and</strong> exchanging data; <strong>and</strong> 3) assuring individual patient <strong>and</strong> providerconfidentiality. Data should be risk-adjusted <strong>and</strong> carefully screened for accuracy, asrelease of complex raw data to the public will only result in confusion <strong>and</strong> conflict.Clinical decision support systems will aid greatly in implementing best practices byprompting the provider with key information at the time care decisions are made.Taken together, all this will result in practice that is more: 1) evidence-based; 2)cost-effective; <strong>and</strong> 3) accountable to the patients it serves.Incorporation of Research <strong>and</strong> Technology intoMedical PracticeThe practice of the future will be heavily dependent on research <strong>and</strong> technology inat least two dimensions: 1) clinical research <strong>and</strong> technology will provide ever moresophisticated ways to diagnose <strong>and</strong> manage illness; 2) information research <strong>and</strong>technology will aid in the ongoing education of professionals <strong>and</strong> also in managingthe health of populations through more efficient data collection <strong>and</strong> analysis. Thisalso means consumers will be much more involved in decisions about their owncare. Medicine will need to incorporate the best that new technology has to offerwhile respecting <strong>and</strong> maintaining the core values of the provider/patientrelationship. Technology should not obscure the need for care <strong>and</strong> compassion orcreate additional barriers between provider <strong>and</strong> patient. It should be economicallyaffordable based on a detailed study of costs <strong>and</strong> benefits, <strong>and</strong> the ethicalimplications of new technologies should be carefully analyzed <strong>and</strong> discussed.Health practitioners will also be educated together about economics <strong>and</strong> ethics ofhealth care to broaden their perspective regarding partnerships in the deployment ofnew technology.Many new diagnostic <strong>and</strong> treatment technologies will be available to practitionersof the future. Gene therapies will enable preventive treatment of diseases such ascystic fibrosis <strong>and</strong> some cancers. Virtual reality can help teach new providersanatomy <strong>and</strong> surgery with less risk to the patient. Telemedicine will enable a patientin a rural area to be "seen" by a specialist many miles away. Robotic devices mayh<strong>and</strong>le many procedures that currently require advanced training. Image-guidedtherapy will enable more precise localization of tumors for the surgeon. Patientswill be able to communicate with their physician by email, <strong>and</strong> be able to seekadvice from experts online regarding their symptoms <strong>and</strong> health concerns.Information technology will also provide great opportunities for enhancedinterconnectivity. Development of the electronic medical record should beencouraged <strong>and</strong> should greatly enhance efficiency of care - both of the individualfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (5 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assembly<strong>and</strong> of populations. Once records are prospectively recorded in digital form, captureof clinical data (not just claims data) <strong>and</strong> analysis of outcomes will be much easierto accomplish. For example, patients may carry "smart cards" encoded with theirentire medical history. Although much work has been done, better tools - whichinclude provider input - are still needed to accomplish this.In addition to more integrated systems, practitioners will also learn to think aboutpatients in exp<strong>and</strong>ed ways. The medical model of yesterday focused on a physiciantreating an ill patient who sought medical care. The public has come to expect more- more prevention, more support, more services. In the future, patients will continueto be sick, but they will expect greater efforts to keep them well - in preventive,curative, <strong>and</strong> chronic care medicine.By way of example, the growth of the elderly population has exp<strong>and</strong>ed the numberof patients with chronic diseases who consume more resources. Over 45% of noninstitutionalizedAmericans have one or more chronic conditions <strong>and</strong> their directhealth care costs account for three-fourths of US health care expenditures. Newpractice teams will provide case management, home health, social services, <strong>and</strong>special support uniquely crafted to maintain optimal health.In order to achieve high performing medical systems for the entire population,universal access to care should be achieved. In the remainder of this document, wewill discuss key elements <strong>and</strong> potential solutions necessary to advance medicalpractice as we move into the 21st Century.Patients' Rights, Roles, Expectations,<strong>and</strong> ResponsibilitiesThis section explores the role of increasing availability of medical knowledge inchanging the dynamics of the doctor/patient relationship, the need to facilitateeducation of the patient, the role of the patient as an active participant in the healthcare team, <strong>and</strong> the facilitation <strong>and</strong> encouragement of patient responsibility for theirown health outcomes.Availability of Medical KnowledgeInternet publications <strong>and</strong> discussion groups, other electronic resources, <strong>and</strong> themedia have become a significant source of information for patients. This wideavailability has created educated consumers who can judge <strong>and</strong> choose amonghealth care options <strong>and</strong> may also be reflected in increased dem<strong>and</strong>s for specificfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (6 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblytherapies. Medical care may increasingly be perceived as a commodity, an item forwhich full value is sought in return for money. Advocacy on particular issues suchas women's health is also an effect of this knowledge.Patient EducationIn the current environment, patients have easier access to health informationthrough such means as the Internet, <strong>and</strong> they also are the target of media <strong>and</strong>advertising campaigns. In this context, the role of health professionals is changingfrom being the sole source of information for their patients to helping patientsinterpret <strong>and</strong> use information to make decisions that are best for them. Therapeuticeducation is one component of enhancing compliance <strong>and</strong> motivation; behavioralinterventions must be used along with knowledge transfer. A member of themedical team should perform this educational function; however, this need not be aphysician.Government should also play a role in enabling patients to become more informedsubscribers to health plans, by requiring health plans to collect <strong>and</strong> publish bothprocess <strong>and</strong> outcomes data in a st<strong>and</strong>ard form.Patient as a Full Member of the Health Care TeamThe health care team includes the patient as a full participant who plays an activerole in medical care <strong>and</strong> carries shared responsibility for his/her own medical care.Providers, in turn, must actively enable patients' capacity to be participants in theirown care, including decision-making in the face of alternative treatments <strong>and</strong> accessto their own medical records. In particular, decisions about palliation <strong>and</strong> the end oflife must be made not only for the patient's sake, but with the patient as acollaborator wherever possible. Outcomes measured should always include patientcenteredmeasurements (functional status, satisfaction, etc.). Education should helpphysicians <strong>and</strong> other professionals develop the skills to facilitate the team <strong>and</strong> therole of the patient on the team.Individual Responsibility for Health OutcomesPhysicians <strong>and</strong> other health care providers <strong>and</strong> patients need to recognize that theymust share responsibility for their own health practices <strong>and</strong> outcomes. Riskybehaviors (drug abuse, smoking, unprotected sex, violence), lack of preventivehealth practices (poor nutrition, lack of exercise, etc.), or choosing not to accesscare even when it is available (deciding not to buy health insurance even wheneconomically feasible <strong>and</strong> available) are all part of patient responsibility. Whilefile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (7 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblyboth the public health system <strong>and</strong> the medical care system can reach out to patients<strong>and</strong> facilitate behavior change, the ultimate responsibility is in the h<strong>and</strong>s of theindividual. By including patients as partners in health care decision-making, theywill assume more responsibility for their health outcomes. Thus, patients willbecome more accountable for the health consequences of poor health-seekingbehaviors <strong>and</strong> risky lifestyles in the face of available, accessible, <strong>and</strong> affordablehealth services.Medical EducationMedical education is a process in evolution. Education of tomorrow's providersshould involve a continuum of experience-based learning designed to meet <strong>and</strong>anticipate the needs of the patient <strong>and</strong> population while providing the skillsnecessary to manage the practice of the future. The external practice environmentexpectations must be recognized <strong>and</strong> provide a basis for curriculum development<strong>and</strong> modification, defining new required skills, <strong>and</strong> setting outcome/productobjectives (i.e. generalist/specialist mix). These changes will manifest themselvesin pre-doctoral, postdoctoral <strong>and</strong> continuing medical education.Medical SchoolMedical school curricula must evolve to meet the future. Deans <strong>and</strong> medical schoolcurriculum committees should review content <strong>and</strong> delivery styles to ensure thatdeveloping physician tasks, skills, <strong>and</strong> characteristics are adequately addressed.Students should receive greater exposure to population-based tools <strong>and</strong> curricula,including epidemiology, statistics, <strong>and</strong> public health principles. Enhancedcommunication skills, cultural awareness <strong>and</strong> competency, techniques forfacilitating behavioral change, <strong>and</strong> critical thinking also should be stressed. Thegoal should be developing life-long learners with skills that facilitate the integrationof evidence-based information with clinical decision-making. As part of the processof creating this new skill set, students should receive greater exposure to <strong>and</strong>experience with business aspects <strong>and</strong> systems that will face them once they enterthe medical practice. An appreciation of the principles of managed care,informatics, the patient's perspective, medical ethics, <strong>and</strong> the responsibility to thehealth of the population as well as the individual are all issues with which graduatesof medical school should be conversant.The settings in which the medical school education takes place will evolve as well.While the apprenticeship model still has its value, there will be more reliance in thefuture on "virtual models" <strong>and</strong> experience. Within the school, there is a need forgreater integration of basic <strong>and</strong> clinical sciences with regard to curriculum reform,file:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (8 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblystructure, <strong>and</strong> research. Along with greater interaction, departmental barriers mustbe reduced for certain patient alternatives to facilitate a multi-specialty approach. Atthe same time, the classroom should be moved further into the community settingearly in the education process in order to accentuate the value of primary care <strong>and</strong>the underst<strong>and</strong>ing of patients in the context of their environment.However, community settings should be carefully chosen <strong>and</strong> supported for theirfuture-looking principles <strong>and</strong> organization. The effectiveness of these measuresshould be evaluated to determine the efficacy in preparing physicians for theevolving health care system. We would ask that the Liaison Committee on MedicalEducation (LCME) <strong>and</strong> its parent organizations (<strong>and</strong> corresponding osteopathicorganizations) consider these recommendations in the ongoing process of evolvingst<strong>and</strong>ards for accreditation.Government will also have a role in investing in research <strong>and</strong> medical education,which is beyond the level which any provider or private entity will be willing toinvest. A major area for research should be in the area of mental health <strong>and</strong> also indeveloping methods for motivating changes toward healthy behaviors.Post-Medical School Specialty TrainingThe influence of financial pressures on the structure of post-medical schoolspecialty training must be addressed. First, shrinking state <strong>and</strong> research dollars forfaculty support coupled with problems of profitability for individual clinicaldepartments, at least in part due to a disproportionate burden of indigent care at theacademic medical center, continues to put service care dem<strong>and</strong>s at a higher prioritythan educational experience. Second, managed care has further diminished revenuesby reducing paying patients without sharing the burden of uncompensated care.Third, post-medical school specialty training remains under financed at the state<strong>and</strong> national levels, making it dependent on practice income with the resultingdisincentive to reduce subspecialty trainees. Ideally, level of production would betied to anticipated future population need rather than the current provision ofindigent care services. Financial reform must be coupled with the need to h<strong>and</strong>lethe oversupply of certain subspecialties <strong>and</strong> the appropriate mix of physician types.The learning experience at this level should be structured to enhance the residents'experience with multi-specialty group practices, interdisciplinary team approachesto care, principles of managed care, <strong>and</strong> treatment of chronic diseases. There is aneed to exp<strong>and</strong> the nurturing by all professionals who want to be part of theinterdisciplinary team. The skills proposed for the medical school curricula shouldbe reinforced, such as the use of epidemiological principles, biostatistics, medicalfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (9 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblydecision-making, evidenced-based medicine, coordination of care, communicationskills, behavioral therapies, <strong>and</strong> the impact of public health on their patientpopulation. The ambulatory experience must continue to grow as a percentage ofthe care experience (i.e. now m<strong>and</strong>ated at 25% by the American Board of InternalMedicine). Further, appropriate outpatient settings must be developed to enhancethe learning (private sector, community-based, learning-driven rather than volumedriven,etc.)Continuing EducationThe process of continuing medical education remains largely inadequate <strong>and</strong> is notmeeting the needs of patients or providers. Skills <strong>and</strong> knowledge bases must beupdated <strong>and</strong> the process must be designed as a continuum of learning to include theincorporation of new knowledge required to function <strong>and</strong> lead in new multispecialtygroup settings practicing in a managed care environment.Principles should drive the reformation of continuing education. First, there is aneed to be more experientially-based, not didactic. This might be translated toperiodically physically or virtually sending a teacher to the practice setting orperiodically sending the providers back to school. Diagnostic <strong>and</strong> technical skillsmust be upgraded in the process. Second, quality needs to be improved. Third, thereshould be a requirement for m<strong>and</strong>atory periodic recertification based on specialtywith competency in technical skills incorporated. Fourth, skills for the "future"physician must also be emphasized: management, business, population strategies,evidence-based medicine, <strong>and</strong> outcomes management.Innovative arrangements for financing <strong>and</strong> providing continuing education shouldbe explored. For example, some medical schools are now offering lower up fronttuition costs for a commitment to lifelong learning through their school.Telecommunication <strong>and</strong> telemedicine will also be important. Other innovationsinclude exchange sabbaticals, in which faculty <strong>and</strong> private practitioners temporarilyexchange places in order to upgrade the practitioners' skills.Government <strong>and</strong> Medical PracticeRegulatory IssuesIn the health system of the future, there will remain a number of regulatory issueswhich government may be best suited to address. These will include licensure <strong>and</strong>relicensure of practitioners, regulating insurance <strong>and</strong> health plans so that there is alevel playing field <strong>and</strong> that effective medical organizations <strong>and</strong> practices arefile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (10 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblypromoted, helping determine basic benefit plans, <strong>and</strong> regulation of drugs <strong>and</strong>medical equipment. We believe that some existing regulations <strong>and</strong> arrangementsmust be restudied in the light of subsequent developments. And finally, st<strong>and</strong>ards ofmedical practice should be evidence-based <strong>and</strong> developed by the profession;legislative bodies should not micro-legislate medical practice.Licensure <strong>and</strong> relicensure of all professions will continue to be an important issue.With the universal requirement of the US Medical Licensing Exam for licensure,the US <strong>and</strong> Canada have rapidly moved to more consistency in licensing criteria.Telemedicine is increasingly used, but it runs up against state licensure constraints.Reasonable accommodations to telemedicine should be developed, as shouldmovement to a far more portable licensure within the US to accommodate increasedmobility of both patients <strong>and</strong> providers. In the area of relicensure, we shouldattempt to further develop valid measures of clinical skills <strong>and</strong> problem assessmentwhich can be used to periodically relicense providers. In the short run, there mightbe very high costs of adopting such a system.Regulation of health insurance plans must provide incentives for high qualitypractice while keeping plans from taking only the low risks or competing in termsof price by inappropriately denying access or benefits. In particular, we areconcerned that chronically ill or disabled citizens on managed care might beharmed by cost containment efforts. We believe that promotion of Health InsurancePurchasing Cooperatives is worth encouraging as are arrangements which willprovide incentives for the development of further high quality integrated healthsystems.There may be a role for government to work with consumers, employers, providers,<strong>and</strong> health plans to develop basic benefit packages. The basic benefits packageshould be evidence-based <strong>and</strong> should include cost effective preventive care.Government will have a continuing role in approving drugs, biologicals, <strong>and</strong>medical devices for safety <strong>and</strong> efficacy. It is important that government useevidence-based criteria in making these decisions.Most of us believe that the Employee Retirement Insurance Security Act (ERISA),which exempts many employee health plans from state regulation, should bechanged. The Sherman Act, which keeps many existing health care providers fromcooperating in rationalizing services, <strong>and</strong> malpractice law in many states have hadunintended consequences <strong>and</strong> should be further studied for possible modification.Financing Health for the Uninsured <strong>and</strong> PartiallyUninsuredfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (11 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyAnother role of government is the financing of health services for those in need ofpublic support. In thinking about the role of the public sector in this issue, we mustbegin with the recognition that universal access to basic health care is afundamental objective that we espouse for both moral <strong>and</strong> economic reasons.Our societal values dictate that people who have acute medical care needs alwaysreceive emergency care regardless of ability to pay. This practice createsfragmented <strong>and</strong> limited care. Practitioners <strong>and</strong> society should work to provideuniversal access to all levels of care. This effort would be the combinedresponsibility of both public <strong>and</strong> private sectors.Currently about 18% of our population has no insurance coverage. We believe thatpublic policy can be developed to make coverage available to them with acombination of local, state, <strong>and</strong> federal initiatives. A large number of the uninsuredlive in working families. Although many decisions are risk-based, insurancecoverage can be made available to the uninsured through a combination ofincentives to small employers to provide employment-based insurance <strong>and</strong> incometax credits for individuals who purchase qualified health plans. Another segment ofthe currently uninsured are demographically eligible for Medicaid. They canreceive public coverage through expansion of Medicaid income eligibility.Although some may be concerned about exp<strong>and</strong>ing an entitlement program, webelieve that there is public support for using Medicaid as a financing mechanism.Recent experience indicates that as Medicaid clients are mainstreamed intomanaged care plans shared by commercial clients, health plans have had nodifficulty in accommodating this new clientele. This is evidenced by the increasingenthusiasm among health plans to bid for Medicaid contracts. In the end, we simplyhave to recognize that in a public coverage program, the monetary benefits go to thesystem that provides care, not to individual clients.After financial incentives for the working uninsured <strong>and</strong> after Medicaid expansion,there will inevitably be a small portion of the population still lacking coverage. Webelieve that the remaining group can be financed through other sources of revenue.While we share the public sentiment that new taxes should be minimized, we alsobelieve that the public benefit of providing the entire population with insuranceshould be balanced against the costs.Public HealthHealth care advocates increasingly are recognizing that there is a shared obligationbetween government, business, <strong>and</strong> individuals to improve the health of allfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (12 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyAmerican citizens, <strong>and</strong> that our current financing system ignores a crucialcomponent: public health services. These services include community-wide effortsthat monitor <strong>and</strong> limit health risks, eliminate or control epidemics, prevent injury,promote physical <strong>and</strong> mental health, <strong>and</strong> respond to natural disasters.Although more than one million deaths <strong>and</strong> numerous preventable diseases arecaused each year by unsafe neighborhoods, air <strong>and</strong> water pollution, risky lifestyles<strong>and</strong> unhealthy behaviors, as well as a host of other socioeconomic factors, thecurrent medical care system does little to address these determinants of poor health.Real health care reform, therefore, will require that we enhance collaboration acrosspublic <strong>and</strong> private sectors to strengthen the coordination of the delivery of publichealth services with traditional medical practice for improving <strong>and</strong> for protectingthe overall health of the public. A guiding principle should be to incorporate thegoal of using interventions to improve population health <strong>and</strong> functioning, over <strong>and</strong>above individual health, in the most cost-effective manner.It is clear that future health care planning will involve multilevel coordinationbetween efforts at the federal, state, <strong>and</strong> local levels <strong>and</strong> the medical care system toensure public health. At the national level, the federal government should play animportant role in protecting <strong>and</strong> securing the health of Americans. Localcommunities <strong>and</strong> municipalities will require national leadership for setting thevision for maintaining a healthy population.The federal <strong>and</strong> state governments should support local initiatives that involvecollecting data on the local needs of the community, conducting annual needsassessments, <strong>and</strong> compiling <strong>and</strong> disseminating results to inform key stockholders<strong>and</strong> to spawn new initiatives that improve the health of the population. States <strong>and</strong>localities will need regulatory performance guidelines <strong>and</strong> assurances formonitoring functional outcomes <strong>and</strong> for using appropriate interventions to improvethe health of the community. For this reason, state <strong>and</strong> federal governments shouldtake the lead in establishing st<strong>and</strong>ards, definitions, <strong>and</strong> accountability in publichealth initiatives.We also will continue to rely heavily on public health professionals to identifycommunity health problems <strong>and</strong> to provide innovative solutions.Public/Private CollaborationsAt the same time, with the increasing cost of health services research, education,indigent care, community programs, <strong>and</strong> the need for accountability, public <strong>and</strong>private sectors should come together to encourage <strong>and</strong> finance biomedical research,health professional education, access to care for the medically under served, <strong>and</strong>file:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (13 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblypublic health programs.Developing public/private partnerships, then, at all levels, will be crucial to supportan increasingly expensive health care infrastructure that should include both publichealth <strong>and</strong> medical care services. For example, there is a growing dem<strong>and</strong> forprivate <strong>and</strong> public sector initiatives in the development of technology <strong>and</strong> a need todetermine to set some guidelines as the national level. As of yet, we know verylittle about the legal ramifications of technological changes with respect to healthcare interventions.Additionally, there should be a federal/state organized dialogue involving thecommunity, providers, <strong>and</strong> government to exp<strong>and</strong> the current discussion to focusmore on health care as a public good. Efforts should be made to bring these groupstogether <strong>and</strong> examine the ways in which the health care system can better supportthe activities of the next generation of researchers <strong>and</strong> educators.We will also need to determine economic incentives which support the public good.Fiscal conservatism will limit financial resources. To be sure, the end of guaranteedentitlements will affect access to health care for those who need it most. Huge percapita differences between states will influence the extent of financial resources ofeach state <strong>and</strong> local municipality.LeadershipThe health care professions, physicians in particular, must provide leadership in thefollowing arenas:St<strong>and</strong>ard SettingTo ensure quality of health care, st<strong>and</strong>ards of care must be developed <strong>and</strong>constantly updated. Voluntary accreditation processes are already in place forhealth care organizations. The American Medical Association, through theAmerican Medical Accreditation Program (AMAP), is in the process of developinga provider level accreditation program combining self-assessment, peer visitation,<strong>and</strong> outcomes measurement. Performance st<strong>and</strong>ards will include office management(office environment; policies, procedures, <strong>and</strong> personnel; medical record keeping,<strong>and</strong> office procedures), clinical performance (process measures), <strong>and</strong> clinicaloutcomes. Similar efforts are underway to develop accreditation procedures forgroup medical practices. Leadership from health professionals in this area mustaddress such issues as making sure st<strong>and</strong>ards are evidence-based, that uniform databe sought, <strong>and</strong> that accreditation will be desirable based on improving consumerfile:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (14 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Assemblychoice or desirability to the payor. Integrated health systems must also develop suchan accreditation process.Performance ContractingProviders should play a much larger role in defining high quality health care <strong>and</strong>proposing performance-based contracts. Performance st<strong>and</strong>ards should be evidencebased<strong>and</strong> should go beyond patient satisfaction to include other patient-centeredprocess measures <strong>and</strong> outcomes. Information technology <strong>and</strong> an electronic medicalrecord will greatly enhance the ability to measure performance.Advocate for Public Policy that Affects the Health ofthe PopulationThe infrastructure of the public health system has been allowed to deteriorate as thepublic has put its faith in medical technology. Yet public health measures providegreater protection for the health of the individual - as well as the community - thanmedical care. Providers must become involved in the politics <strong>and</strong> governance ofpublic health in order to ensure the health of their own patient populations <strong>and</strong>communities. In particular, they must ensure that community-wide preventionstrategies are not dismantled when expensive treatments such as protease inhibitorsfor AIDS are introduced. They should also support community-wide efforts tochange risky behaviors (drug abuse, HIV, smoking, violence, etc.), to promotehealthy behaviors (exercise, nutrition, stress reduction, helmets for both bicyclists<strong>and</strong> motorcyclists, immunizations, etc.) <strong>and</strong> sanitation, <strong>and</strong> to combatenvironmental toxins. Providers must become engaged in the public debates <strong>and</strong> beleaders in both promotion of funding <strong>and</strong> setting priorities. Use of innovativecollaborations with schools, social service agencies, local businesses, <strong>and</strong> managedcare will be necessary. In particular, managed care could be tasked with improvingthe health of a population within the geographic region they serve, in collaborationwith their competitors.Integrated Health Care SystemsPhysicians <strong>and</strong> other practitioners should take the lead in development <strong>and</strong>management of integrated health care systems to ensure quality, patientcenteredness, <strong>and</strong> the practice of evidence-based medicine. Having identified boththe external factors <strong>and</strong> the changes in policies <strong>and</strong> procedures that will shape thepractice of medicine in the 21st Century, we turn to specific recommendations. Allshould be viewed in light of the fact that we believe that managed care, in someform, will remain the dominant organizing principle for health care delivery.file:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (15 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]


<strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> AssemblyConclusions <strong>and</strong> RecommendationsA healthy population is a prerequisite for a healthy society. A broad range offactors, including but going beyond medical care, influence the health ofindividuals <strong>and</strong> populations.To achieve desired health outcomes at an affordable cost:medical practices will need to work more closely with professionals <strong>and</strong> institutionsin public health <strong>and</strong> other sectors in the community;adequate support must be assured for essential public goods, including medical carefor the uninsured; education of all types of health professionals; clinical, publichealth, <strong>and</strong> health systems research; <strong>and</strong> the provision of community-wide healthpromotion <strong>and</strong> health protection services;the potential of information systems <strong>and</strong> quality measurement must be realized; <strong>and</strong>decisions about health systems best suited to achieve these goals should be made atthe community level, through public/private partnerships with appropriate national<strong>and</strong> state support.Recommendations1. We envision a future system of medical care that goes beyond managed careas financing or cost containment strategies <strong>and</strong> focuses on cost-effective beststrategies. This system includes the following elements:patient-centered, multi-specialty/interdisciplinary team approach in servicedelivery; population-based as well as individual-based prevention <strong>and</strong>treatment strategies; emphasis on quality of care; incorporation oftechnology into medical practice; <strong>and</strong> enhancement by medical education<strong>and</strong> research.2. Within the context of limited resources, universal access to health care is afundamental objective that we espouse for both moral <strong>and</strong> economic reasons.We believe that public policy can be developed to make coverage availableto the uninsured with a combination of local, state, <strong>and</strong> federal initiatives.3. The system of the future must encourage <strong>and</strong> finance research, education,file:///W|/archive/whiteppr.htm (16 of 17) [7/10/2002 9:31:04 AM]

Practitioners should provide leadership in development <strong>and</strong> management ofintegrated health care systems that ensure quality, patient centeredness, <strong>and</strong>the practice of evidence-based management.5. The federal government should show leadership within the context ofpublic/private partnerships in setting st<strong>and</strong>ards <strong>and</strong> creating infrastructure.For example, setting st<strong>and</strong>ards for data, definitions of terms, <strong>and</strong>commonality of electronic linkages will be key to developing the medicalinformation infrastructure needed for the 21st Century practice.6. Health professional educators should continue to develop their curricula tomeet the needs of the evolving health care system. Professional educationmust train practitioners to work in teams <strong>and</strong> function in the informationage.7. Clinical practitioners must play a more active role as advocates for publichealth <strong>and</strong> in the development <strong>and</strong> implementation of public healthinitiatives.8.

"We wantpeople to know that while keeping fit is important, it doesn't have to be a serious,solitary, painful experience."According to Klatt, that's one of the reasons this will be the first year there will notbe a 10K run in addition to the 5K walk, as there has been in the 15 previousyears. "Since we are tieing the event into the <strong>Scott</strong> & <strong>White</strong> Centennialcelebration, we felt this was a good year to start a new tradition," Klatt explained."We want to create an exciting, non-competitive environment where mom, dad, thekids, <strong>and</strong> even the family pet can enjoy a fun morning together while exercising.file:///W|/archive/centennial/walk.htm (1 of 2) [7/10/2002 8:33:02 AM]
