The eternal triangle: cost, access, and quality.
No matter who is in charge of health policy, no matter what his or her ideological bent, no matter whether the economy is in boom or bust, three concerns stubbornly dominate the discussion: the cost of care, access to care, and the quality of care. The main variation among them is that normally each in turn receives the most attention from policy makers, payers, and the public, over time.
