FP Report

Report scans legislative, economic horizon to forecast future of health care system

Market forces, fiscal restraint and the changing economic status of Americans will determine the outcome of legislation affecting Medicaid, medical liability insurance and physician reimbursement during the 109th Congress. That is the gist of a post-election assessment of the political environment and its potential impact on family medicine.

The assessment, presented to the AAFP Board of Directors during its Nov. 16 - 21 meeting in Kansas City, Mo., can be read at http://www.aafp.org/2004scan.xml.
