He believes that transferring procurement functions to the Area Office will cause unnecessary hardships for patients due to delays and confusion. Dr. Adams suggests retaining Position TA-6 with some procurement functions and designating it as Custodial Officer to mitigate potential issues. He acknowledges the need for personnel reductions but argues that abolishing other positions would have less impact on the hospital's operations.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
