Incidentally. we are in no position to judge the quality of ICM's work. One ",ember plans to use their servi\:es.
At the meeting one member mentioned that they have received the cooperation of th" 102.1 TB anc Re$piratory Disease I\ssociation. Th.. 1\s$Ociation brings in their lIIQbile I/n!t and runs the X_ray and pulmonary r",nction e><IlItIinations. From this point the Con;:>anyPhysician condl/ets the balance of the exam.
