title: Emergency medicine in Israel: state of the art.
abstract: Emergency medicine is in its infancy in Israel but is developing rapidly. Medical and government authorities such as the Israeli Medical Association and the Israeli Ministry of Health have already recognized the need for this field in Israel, although it remains for emergency medicine to be recognized as an independent medical specialty. Those involved in the intense process of obtaining formal recognition believe this will occur in the next year.
