    August 2008 1400 AM WAMC - Host: Dr. Alan Chartock Albany Medical Center President and CEO James Barba discusses the history of Albany Medical Center. Alan Chartock: Hi, Alan Chartock here. Joining me today is James Barba, President and CEO of Albany Medical Center. Albany Medical Center is the region's only academic health sciences, and is nationally recognized for excellence in education, research, and its patient care programs. James Barba has served as President and CEO for more than a decade. He led the way in combining Albany Medical College with the hospital, creating the unified medical center that exists today. James Barba, welcome and thanks for being here. James Barba: Thank you, Alan. It's great to be with you today. Alan Chartock: So I see a wonderful book in front of me called The History and Formation of Albany Medical Center. Now when your wonderful colleague Greg McGarry sent it to me, I said to myself, "You know we share this common history. It's WAMC." And a lot of people slap themselves on the side of the head when I tell them, "WAMC stands for Albany Medical College", or it did in the old days before you guys were kind enough to allow us to separate out and go on our own way. James Barba: Are you telling me it doesn't still stand for Albany Medical College, Alan? Alan Chartock: We have always been grateful for that opportunity. And it really, really mean that. So as soon as I say this I said, "You know, we really ought to have an hour with Jim Barba and have a discussion of how all of this came about.

  • COE Facilities
    Institutes of Quality® Quality care made simple. Sometimes surgery is the best choice for your health. But all surgery carries some level of risk, so it’s important to look for facilities known for quality care. We’ve simplified the process. As a member, you have a special network of hospitals and other facilities that specialize in certain procedures: • Cardiac (for the heart) • Orthopedic (for the joints and spine) • Bariatric (for weight loss) We call these facilities our Institutes of Quality (IOQ for short). Facilities earn IOQ status for having high volumes and producing clear clinical results in their area of specialty. This delivers value and quality to members, so you can get back to living your life. IOQ requirements were created by working with experts on these health conditions. You can review these requirements at: aetna.com/provider/medical/resource_ med/business_med/institutes.html Special Notes You may need preauthorization for these services. Please see our Clinical Policy Bulletins located at https://www.aetna.com/health-care-professionals/ clinical-policy-bulletins/medical-clinical-policy-bulletins.html. Not all Institutes of Quality services are covered by all health plans. To find out if a facility is a network provider in your plan, please log in or register now to get search results based on your plan or you can start a new search and select an Aetna plan at aetna.com/dse/search?site_id=docfind&langpref=en&tabKey=tab1. Some of the Institutes of Quality do not have doctors who contract with Aetna. You may have to pay extra if you use a center that does not have doctors who contract with Aetna.

It is a Level-I Trauma center, and the only academic health sciences center in Northeastern New York State. In 2013, Albany Medical Center underwent a $330 million expansion of the Medical Center Hospital. Not only does the expansion allow for state-of-the-art services, it also allowed Albany Medical Center to become the first hospital in the region to attain LEED Gold Certification, in part due to its incorporation of CHP. Reasons for CHP To meet the increased power needs from the expansion, Albany Medical Center Hospital chose to invest in a CHP plant. Because of its urban location, the available space for power generation is tightly constrained, and Albany Medical Center wanted to ensure they could meet the needs of their current and future expansions.

  • Air Medical Services Utilization Guidelines
    INTRODUCTION The Hudson Valley–Westchester Helicopter subcommittee is an inter-regional advisory group established by the Hudson Valley and Westchester Regional EMS Councils and the local Air Medical Services (AMS). This guideline is provided to all emergency service agencies: law enforcement, fire departments, and emergency medical services (EMS) in the lower seven counties of the Hudson River Valley (geographically north to south, west to east) – Sullivan, Ulster, Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, and Westchester. The helicopter is an air ambulance and an essential part of the EMS system. In today’s environment of increasingly scarce EMS resources, appropriate use of AMS is of the utmost importance. Adherence to the practices included in this guideline will help to ensure that the proper resources are provided to the right patients at the right time while maintaining safe and efficient EMS operations. OPERATIONAL CRITERIA FOR REQUESTING AIR MEDICAL SERVICES The following operational criteria must be met prior to requesting a helicopter for scene response: 1. The patient can arrive at the closest appropriate facility faster by air than by ground transport. 2. A safe helicopter-landing site is available. Ground providers should notify dispatch if more than one patient requires air transport. If available, one helicopter will be dispatched per critical patient requiring air transport. CLINICAL CRITERIA FOR REQUESTING AIR MEDICAL SERVICES 1. The patient needs and/or would benefit from the clinical capability of the AMS team. 2. A patient in cardiac arrest may be transported by AMS if already responding and the transport to the closest hospital would be faster by air than ground.
