- On behalf of Ontario’s Family Physicians, the
COFP has maintained ongoing contact with the
Chair of the Medical Review Committee
(MRC), Dr. Barnett Giblon, to pursue positive
changes to the MRC process. With regards to
clarifying the MRC judging process, we are pleased
that Dr. Giblon agrees with us that family physicians
should be aware of the criteria the MRC uses when performing
an audit. With his permission, the COFP is giving
you the “scorecard” that is used to judge
the A003A general assessment code.
