    In this interview, Joseph P. McCue, FHFMA, CPA, chairman of HFMA's Principles & Practices Board, discusses the history and activity of the Board since its start in 1975. According to McCue, the Board was originally formed to address the technical accounting and reporting questions unique to the healthcare industry, and nothing has changed HFMA's opinion that such a mission is still important--the necessity for a P&P Board is as acute now as it was in 1975. The interviewer is Karen Hackett, CMPA, an HFMA staff liaison with the Board.
