The Wisconsin Primary Care Organizations Consortium: a forum for the primary care medical specialties.
The Wisconsin Primary Care Organizations Consortium (WI-PCOC) is composed of the leadership of Wisconsin's primary care medical specialties whose four professional societies have a combined membership of about 3,900 physicians. Since 1992, WI-PCOC has explored the priorities and issues of importance of each organization, and has reviewed organizational resources to synchronize agendas and to avoid conflict. WIPCOC articulates policy supported by its member societies with a common voice; it does not set policy. WI-PCOC has worked with legislators, medical school deans, other specialty societies and other groups interested in primary care service and education. WI-PCOC member organizations aspire to work together to improve the level of health of Wisconsin citizens and their communities.
