Commun-I-Care: experience in the first four years.

The medically uninsured ("working poor") comprise roughly 10 percent of the citizens in South Carolina. These individuals are more likely than the insured to have chronic health conditions including hypertension, diabetes, and respiratory diseases. They appear to have poorer outcomes as as result of misallocation of health care resources from prevention to acute intervention. CIC is a novel program which represents an effort to coordinate the efficient utilization of existing resources to meet the non-emergent health care needs of the medically uninsured. The CIC program has enjoyed a successful beginning and, with the continued strong support of providers and sponsors, looks forward to exciting progress in the future.

Spondylotic high cervical spinal cord compression presenting with hand complaints.

Three patients with spondylotic compression of the upper cervical spinal cord presented with complaints of sensory dysfunction in their hands. Sensory dysfunction in the hands may signal a lesion in the upper cervical spinal cord if other common neurological causes can be excluded. Somatosensory evoked potentials may be useful in providing objective information to supplement subjective complaints in the hands caused by a high cervical lesion.
