Where this comes from

Abstract

What will the future bring? Will biomedical advances move rapidly and affordably into clinical practice, stimulated by the demands of the educated consumer? Or will changes in the way health care is financed and physician inability to stay abreast of clinical changes widen the gap between high-quality and mediocre medical care? Is there a limit to what we can afford to provide, regardless of availability?
