Texas IPE Task Force:

History

In September 2013, Raymond S. Greenberg MD, PhD,

became Executive Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs

for the University of Texas System.

Dr. Greenberg came to the UT System with 13 years

experience as President of the Medical University of

South Carolina.

Dr. Greenberg is described as coming into his new

position with a highly collaborative attitude,

encouraging increased collaboration among the State’s

health institutions. He is attributed with the idea of

quarterly meetings between these institutions.

Goal of Their Initial Meetings

To Explore Opportunities for the Institutions to Work Together

in Ways that Had Not Occurred Previously

Quarterly Meetings, rotating their meeting site to each institution’s

main health sciences campus or by video conference.

The Presidents present to the State Legislature’s House Committee

on Public Health and have reported on the developing collaboration

between the institutions around IPE and Patient Safety and on how

the institutions are working together in ways that had not occurred

previously.

Task Force Concept: Avenue to Identify

Opportunities for State Wide Collaboration

• Several Task Forces were established to explore ways the

institutions could work together around particular topics:

• Mental Health in Texas

• Telemedicine and Rural Health in Texas

• Ebola in Texas (focused on establishing a plan of how the

institutions would work together around Ebola)

• Interprofessional Education (IPE) in Texas

Representatives from each Institution were identified

Texas Tech Health Sciences Center was asked to chair the task force.
