The initial findings from the PD "Access" survey are available for viewing at <A HREF="www.parkinsonscare.org">www.parkinsonscare.org</A> -- click on the "Results" box on the home page. The survey was conducted by the QuADPaC (Quality Access and Delivery of Parkinson's Care) program of the Parkinson's Disease Foundation. The data summarize nearly 3000 responses to the 1999 mail survey of the PDF mailing list. Further analyses are planned on topics of interest such as prescription drug coverage and long term care. Findings from this and other research are intended to inform policy makers about issues and problems with access to PD care. A revised questionnaire is also online. Everyone should take 15 minutes to complete the online survey, also at the website, and tell other people with PD to complete the survey. Perry Cohen
