Abstract

The President of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) discusses the present socioeconomic milieu, which has created anxiety in the neurosurgical community. The underlying factors are technological advances, hospital-physician relationships, medical liability, quality assurance reviews, and physician reimbursement. It is proposed that neurosurgeons be proactive in the development of health-care reform.
