In the Health Care Reform Movement, What Is Moving Us?(Practice Management) (Report‪)‬

[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Health care reform is constantly in the minds of most people. We all worry about what tomorrow will bring to our practice. Social reform movements have a history of taking time. Since reform can take years to reach legislation or affect delivery, providers can get complacent, which can turn into apathy. When this happens, providers disregard the benchmarks that suggest future changes, continuing to use clinical based policies and procedures, paying only lip service to the growing business based factors pushing change in health care. Many feel that we have lost control of our destiny, which may make us part of the problem rather than part of the solution.
