Abstract

Quality assurance is receiving increasing attention in a changing health care delivery system dominated by cost containment. Quality is being defined by health professionals, patients, hospitals, the purchasers of care, and government. None seem to agree entirely. A meaningful future for assurance of quality of care for the patient with cancer will require thoughtful program development by a widely diverse group of organizations dedicated to this goal.
