(Jerusalem Post) Joel Leyden - A group of American physicians will travel to Israel this week to provide coordination for critical medical services in the event of a national emergency in Israel. The 13 participating doctors, representing the Dallas, Des Moines, and Indianapolis Jewish communities, are volunteers for the Medical Emergency Response Group (ERG), a collaborative project of the United Jewish Communities (UJC), the Jewish Agency (JAFI), and Western Galilee Hospital in Nahariya, Israel. "Our main objective is to conduct a dry-run at the Western Galilee Hospital to prepare for the possible need to return to Israel due to an emergency, such as war," said Dr. Sandy Bidner, an East Texas orthopedic surgeon and chair of the medical branch of Partnership 2000 for the U.S. central region.
