International developments in health policy: forces driving change.
A conference entitled "International Developments in Health Policy: Forces Driving Change' was held at the Royal College of Physicians, London on 12 July 1996. The aim of this conference was to examine factors currently making an impact upon health care delivery in the United Kingdom and the USA, in the light of the common need for cost containment within each of these health care systems. This meeting was organised as a follow-on to a conference held at the College in 1994 entitled "International Developments in Health Care: A Review of Health Systems in the 1990s', which has been previously reported in the Journal and published as proceedings by the Royal College of Physicians.
