RADAR program suspended over $50K error, Memphis fire chief confirms

Memphis Fire Department

The fire chief of Memphis has suspended its Rapid Assessment Decision and Redirection program over the reported error, which made the local government inadvertently pay an amount of $50,000 to a local healthcare provider.

“Innovative initiatives such as RADAR are important for providing the right response to the citizens of Memphis. However, it is critical that they are conducted appropriately. We made a mistake, we learned from it and we are moving forward,” said Fire Services Chief Gina Sweat in a report.

The RADAR program aims to lessen incidents where ambulances respond to non-emergency 911 calls. In 2016, Kevin Spratlin of the Memphis Fire Department said 25,000 out of the 135,000 calls were non-emergency. As a result, there were at least 2,000 incidents where no ambulance was available to respond to an emergency situation.

“In the past, our model has always been; it doesn’t matter what the call is—we’re going to send an ambulance and we’re going to give you a ride to a hospital,” said Andrew Hart, division chief for Emergency Medical Services at the Memphis Fire Department, during the launch of the RADAR.

The pilot program was a great success, a report of Spratlin read, as they were able to redirect approximately 60 percent of patients to primary care doctors.

“Furthermore, by ensuring that data collection played a key role in the pilot, the group has successfully convinced insurers to partner with the program. They have created a new payment model for non-emergent patients, ensuring the long-term sustainability of the program,” the report added.

However, the services of the physician were supposed to be provided for free during the pilot period. Instead, a report stated that an amount of $100,000 was approved, where half was already given to the health service provider.

Reports said that the city government is already working on getting the money back.

The public was further assured that this inadvertent mistake, as pointed out by the city auditors, is not criminal.

Meanwhile, Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland said part of “being brilliant at a basic” is “admitting our mistakes, fixing what happened, and implementing new policies to make sure it never happens again.”

He has also expressed support to the Memphis Fire Department to swiftly resolve the issue at hand.

Former NFL star cited for #TakeAKnee campaign

TakeAKnee campaign

Former National Football League star Colin Kaepernick has been recognized for his human rights work by the National Education Association on Sunday.

Kaepernick, who is the brainchild of the #TakeAKnee campaign, received the President’s Award for his unparalleled work in advocating for the rights of African-Americans in the US, which began when he took a knee during the national anthem about two years ago as a sign of indignation over the killings.

“To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the streets,” said Kaepernick.

NEA President Lily Eskelsen García said during the awarding ceremony that those receiving the award has shown “remarkable courage and conviction to stand up for racial and social justice.”

“They have shown an unrelenting resolve and ferocity to make a real difference for public education, students, and our nation’s future. They are shining examples of social justice activism, fighting against injustices every day, and making sure that our great nation lives up to its promise,” Garcia added.

As part of Kaepernick’s advocacy, he worked against “racial oppression through education and social justice activism.”

His relentless effort, the NEA said, led to the spread of the #TakeAKnee campaign throughout the NFL and “forced an ongoing, national conversation about the treatment of black Americans by law enforcement.”

This year, the NFL has issued a rather controversial policy, banning their players from kneeling during the national anthem. The league said those who cannot “stand proudly” should not be in the US. Critics believe that the recent NFL policy is a response to US President Donald Trump’s threat to have those kneeling during the national anthem fired.

“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people, and people of color,” Kaepernick said.

As it is, a report said that Kaepernick’s continuous involvement in the #TakeAKnee campaign has “jeopardized his career and endorsements and was let go by the 49ers after the 2016 season. He is currently a free agent.”
