title: Is better access to medical care needed in Delaware?
abstract: Improved access will require more primary care providers, a reduction in administrative red tape, and a clientele with healthy lifestyles who know how to use the system appropriately. Prevention is a necessary component of access even though it often takes years to produce results and is usually not dramatic or glamorous (the heart attack which does not occur is hard to measure). Over time, the health of Delawareans should show improvement through appropriate access to medical care, which should not only be cost effective but add to the quality of life.
