A Humble Request: Consider a $500 Tax-Deductible Donation

Understanding the demands on your time and resources, we humbly ask you to consider a tax-deductible donation of $500 to the Georgia Healthy Family Alliance. Your contribution will enable us to continue the vital work that GAFP members make possible in local communities across the state.

Your Impact: Grants, Education, and Community Initiatives

Since the inception of our grants programs, GAFP member-sponsored healthcare grants have totaled an impressive $720,000, supporting initiatives that enhance the overall health of Georgians. Over the last 18 months, GHFA funding has allowed us to reach more than 65,000 Georgia students through Tar Wars, our tobacco and vape-use prevention program.

Featured Impact: Ethnē Health Grant

One shining example of the impact of your support is the recent $5,000 grant to Ethnē Health, a Non-Profit medical clinic in Clarkston, GA. This grant has played a crucial role in improving access to healthcare for refugees and immigrants new to Georgia. Ethnē Health, under the leadership of GAFP member Esther Kim, MD, ensures that Clarkston-area children and adults receive quality healthcare with culturally sensitive and language-appropriate services. Your support has facilitated 2,741 medical interpretation calls in forty-seven languages over the past year, breaking down language barriers and providing essential care.

Your Support in Action: Local Initiatives

We rely on the leadership, support, and generosity of family physicians like you to continue supporting organizations such as Ethnē Health.

The Georgia Academy of Family Physicians convened November 10-12, 2023 for the Annual Family Medicine CME Weekend at The Hotel at Avalon, in Alpharetta. The meeting included family physicians, residents, and medical students, and offered the opportunity to network, participate in educational activities, and explore leading products and services. This year’s theme recognized the coming together of family medicine.

A variety of educational topics were featured offering attendees a total of 19 AAFP Prescribed credits. Some highlights include the Georgia Department of Public Health’s overview of Dementia Screening, Risk Reduction, and Paths to Diagnosis as well as a primer on the ABFM’s Clinical Registry. Additional highly rated topics included the early detection of Alzheimer’s Disease and Chronic Kidney Disease, as well as Direct Primary Care from a member’s perspective.

New this year, was an OMT Workshop, or Osteopathic Manipulation Treatment. This 4-hour workshop included hands-on work with live models, which was very useful to our osteopathic members as well as any of our physicians who are interested in this method of treatment.

This year GAFP received a total of 58 research poster submissions from pre-med and medical students, residents and physicians/fellows. Posters were accessible virtually and displayed on-site at the Annual Meeting in the Social and Information Hub. The winners in each category were then given the opportunity to present their research on the main stage during a CME session at the meeting. To read more about the Poster Competition, please visit this article.

The Social & Information Hub featured a total of 40 exhibitors and was a great way to reconnect with colleagues and partners as well as discover new vendors and technologies.  Our exhibitors were excited to connect with Georgia family physicians and gave away prizes that totaled over $500!

On Saturday evening, attendees came together for a night of (contra) dancing and friendship at the President’s Celebration and Awards Dinner. GAFP welcomed Dr. Le Church as President and we also celebrated our awardees (Amy Bailey, MD our Family Medicine Educator of the Year, and Chip Cowart, MD as our Family Physician of the Year).

Thank you to the Education & Research Committee for their hard work in planning this year’s meeting. All presentations were peer-reviewed by a member of the committee to determine appropriateness and any conflicts of interest.

The AAFP has reviewed 2023 Annual Family Medicine CME Weekend and deemed it acceptable for up to 19.00 Live AAFP Prescribed credits. Term of Approval is from 11/10/2023 to 11/12/2023. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

The GAFP appreciates all attendees and industry partners for their continued support of GAFP meetings. Looking forward to 2024, make sure to mark your calendars now for the 2024 Summer Family Medicine Weekend scheduled for June 6-9, 2024, at Omni Hilton Head Resort in Hilton Head Island, SC. Additional meeting information will be available soon!

The Georgia Healthy Family Alliance (GHFA) – the foundation arm of the Georgia Academy of Family Physicians -recently received a $250,000 donation from Aetna Better Health of Georgia to support two key initiatives that will advance the health of all Georgians and combat health disparities, especially in underserved and rural communities. Aetna Better Health of Georgia Interim CEO and Market Lead Andre Greenwood (C) presented the grant check to GHFA Vice President Harry Strothers, MD (L) and GHFA President Mitzi Rubin, MD (R) at the GAFP Scientific Assembly on November 10, 2023 in Alpharetta. 

Aetna Better Health of Georgia grant funding will be dedicated to supporting the Tar Wars tobacco and vaping education and prevention program in schools around the state, with a focus on schools with a Title 1 designation. Knowing that many children receive the balance of their meals at school, this grant will allow GHFA to offer additional support to provide healthy school snacks and/or donate needed supplies for the school’s health clinic. The remaining grant funds will be distributed through GHFA’s Community and Immediate Needs grant programs. These grant projects are identified by Georgia Academy of Family Physician members who seek support for critical health needs identified in their communities across Georgia.  To make a donation or apply for a grant visit www.georgiahealthyfamilyalliance.org or email ksinkule@gafp.org.

GAFP EVP Fay Fulton with Dr. Jack Liao and Dr. Casey Henritz

The GAFP is proud to welcome our new Board members and Committee Chairs/Vice Chairs. Thank you to our volunteer leaders who take the time to serve on work groups, committees, and the Board of Directors. Our Academy is strong because of the volunteer efforts of our members.

The Georgia Academy of Family Physicians (GAFP) is pleased to announce the inauguration of Dr. Samuel L. “Le” Church as its new president during the 2023 Annual Meeting held on November 11-12 at the Avalon Hotel in Alpharetta.

Dr. Church, a family physician based in Hiawassee, GA, joins a prestigious group of physicians at the forefront of initiatives, education, resources, and advocacy efforts aimed at better-serving family physicians and their patients.

“I feel privileged to be chosen as the leader for GAFP,” says Dr. Church. “The organization’s inventive approach and unwavering commitment to the well-being of Georgians has brought us here, and I am ecstatic to spearhead such an outstanding organization.”

In addition to his experience as a practicing physician, Dr. Church has a strong passion for teaching. He serves as a core faculty member for the Northeast Georgia Medical Center Family Medicine Residency and as Adjunct Faculty for the AU/UGA Medical Partnership School of Medicine.

Dr. Church is frequently invited to speak and teach at medical practices, residency programs, hospital systems, and regional and national conferences. He has also been a regular contributor to several national publications.

Throughout his career, Dr. Church has held various advisory roles within the American Academy of Family Physicians. He currently serves on the American Medical Association’s CPT Editorial Panel and will be taking on the role of chair for the AMA Vaccine and Immunoglobulin Coding Committee.

Dr. Church noted, “Being involved in leadership roles has provided me an extraordinary opportunity to influence important decisions, and my new role as the president of GAFP will allow me to contribute further to our medical community.”

This year GAFP received a total of 58 research poster submissions from pre-med students, medical students, residents, and physicians/fellows. Posters were accessible virtually to attendees and displayed on-site at the Annual Meeting in the Social and Information Hub. The winners were then given the opportunity to present their research on the main stage during a CME session.

GAFP is excited to share the research poster competition winners and their abstracts:

Patients’ Use of the Federally Qualified Health Center Mobile App and Online Patient Portal in Southwest GA
Alexandra McComas (pre-medical student) at SOWEGA AHEC
Additional Author(s) – Loulie Hattaway, Jeramie Stokes

Abstract – Healthcare Information Technology (HIT) refers to developed IT systems, artificial intelligence, & medical devices that are used to store, share, and analyze health information. HIT is currently being used to improve many aspects of the healthcare system from healthcare professional and patient perspectives. Examples such as mobile applications and online patient portals enable patients to schedule appointments, pay balances, refill prescriptions, and access lab results. HIT has been proven to improve the quality of care in patients at Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). To study the effect of mobile apps and patient portals, a cross-sectional survey was conducted with patients over the age of 18 receiving care at an FQHC in Albany, GA. There is a significant correlation between awareness and use of HIT with factors such as race, age, education, etc. The findings suggest that patients who understand the benefits are more likely to use this HIT. The study also suggests that there are opportunities that can increase the awareness of mobile and web-based portals.

The Effects of External Jugular Compression on Brain Structure and Function in Traumatic Brain Injury Patients
Zach Brieck (medical student) at Mercer Savannah
Additional Author(s) – Kathryn Batchler and John Ashby

Abstract-Objective: Literature review analyzing the effects of a jugular vein compression collar on brain composition and function following periods of physical impacts to the head.

Methods: Data sources: PubMed Database. Study selection: 17 original studies analyzing the physical and cognitive effects between groups assigned to wear a jugular vein compression collar and their relative controls by comparing neuroimages of the brain and cognitive function tests before and after head impacts.

Results: Following review of 38 articles, 17 studies met inclusion criteria. In terms of brain

composition, neuroimaging and data showed significant post-trauma differences in white matter changes, histological markers of degeneration, and risk of hemorrhage between those that did not wear a collar and those that did. Functionally, differences in EEG and fMRI changes were significantly more present in subjects who wore the collar compared those that did not. Task accuracy between subjects who wore the collar and those who did not had mixed results, but response time was not affected by collar use.

Conclusion: Our review of the 17 studies indicates that there is a level of protection to the brain, both compositionally and functionally, that results from wearing a jugular vein compression collar during periods of impact to the head that was not evident in the controls. While external protection such as helmets have proven beneficial in reducing brain injury, these findings suggest a role for additional “internal” protection in significantly decreasing the incidence of microtraumas and the effects of subconcussive impacts.

Dearth of Psychiatric Resources for Pregnant Women in Georgia
Jungwon Choi, MD (resident) at Emory University
Additional Author(s) – Dr. Ambar Kulshreshtha

Abstract – For the past few years, Georgia has had one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the U.S. One of the leading causes of maternal mortality are mental health conditions, but very few pregnant patients with psychiatric conditions are receiving any form of treatment. This is concerning given the significant number of adverse outcomes that can occur in pregnant women who suffer from psychiatric illnesses, including premature delivery, fetal distress and several other obstetric and neonatal complications. One patient case at Emory University is about a pregnant patient with bipolar disorder complicated by psychosis and delusions. She had a very prolonged stay in the hospital due to a lack of psychiatric facilities in the state that were able to care for pregnant patients. For several months, she stayed in the same antepartum room as providers gave her psychotropics and provided the prenatal care she should’ve received on an outpatient basis. Although keeping the patient inpatient was deemed medically necessary for both the patient and fetus’s health, the patient’s prolonged stay certainly utilized a significant amount of hospital resources and was, at times, emotionally distressing for the patient herself. The antepartum floor is not best suited for a patient who has specific obstetric and psychiatric needs. Pregnant women with psychiatric illnesses deserve the same access to treatment as their non-pregnant counterparts. Hopefully, this case report will shed light on how we need to work to improve the current healthcare system to support this vulnerable population.

MRSA Outbreak in High School Athletics
Rachel Latremouille, MD (resident), Augusta University
Additional Author(s) – Tracy Phan, DO, Emma Ratchford, ATC, Rebecca Goldman, ATC, Lisa Branon, ATC, Christopher Ledford, MD

Abstract – Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause skin infections. Infections are usually limited to boils or abscesses however it can lead to more serious infections and even hospitalization. Athletes participating in contact sports are at increased risk of infection with MRSA due to direct skin trauma, skin to skin contact, and frequent contact with playing surfaces. Improper sanitary measures such as infrequent washing of jerseys and equipment or sharing of personal items such as razors, soap, and ointments can lead to a MRSA outbreak within a sports team and community.

An outbreak of MRSA among a local high school football team was suspected by an outreach athletic trainer of Augusta University health. Initially, student athletes were treated with varying antibiotics or antifungals of variable duration and return to play protocols. The sport medicine outreach leadership team promptly updated its MRSA prevention and treatment guidelines which detailed sport specific sanitation, local antibiogram, and guidelines for return to play. The immediate dissemination of validated information allowed for mobilization of staff members and families who then played an integral part in minimizing disease spread. Additionally, teamwork between the athletic trainers, coaching staff, athletic department leadership and sports medicine staff as well as the quick dissemination of these guidelines lead to end of the spread and, ultimately, resolution of the outbreak.

Unilateral Hyperintensity in the Basal Ganglia/Striata: A Case Study of Nonketotic Hyperglycemia
Florence Baralatei, MD; Aparna Satsangi, MD (GAFP active member physician)

Abstract: Nonketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) is a rare but potentially reversible cause of acute chorea associated with uncontrolled hyperglycemia. [2] The most common cause of hemichorea hemiballismus syndrome is the vascular insult in the contralateral striatum or subthalamic nucleus. However, it can occur secondary to a variety of other causes like tumors, encephalitis, neurodegenerative disorders, drugs, ipsilateral chronic subdural hemorrhage, and metabolic disorders such as non-ketotic hyperglycemia. [4] This case study presents an 84-year-old female patient with a history of poorly controlled type 2 diabetes who developed sudden onset hemichorea due to a developed LEFT unilateral T1 hyperintensity in the basal ganglia/striata sparing the internal capsule, and how her symptoms improved with treatment. This phenomenon is rare and should be considered as a differential diagnosis, especially in elderly patients with a history of poorly controlled DM II. . [3]
