Call for Nominations for the Health Services PAC

The Health Services Professional Advisory Committee (HS-PAC) is seeking members for a 3-year term beginning January 1, 2008.  The HS-PAC provides advice to the Surgeon General and the Health Services Chief Professional Officer on professional and personnel issues related to the Health Services category. Selections, which are based on the nominee’s commitment to public health activities and specified criteria in the HS-PAC Charter (e.g., organizational, discipline, gender, minority representation), are made by the HS-PAC and approved by the Surgeon General.  HS-PAC members are expected to obtain the necessary agency support to attend six scheduled meetings per year in Rockville, MD. With permission of the HS-PAC Chair, members stationed outside the Washington, DC area may participate in up to five of these meetings via teleconference. A self-nomination form (which includes a space for supervisory approval) is attached and can also be found on the HS-PAC Web page at –
