abstract: It is not known what the future holds for the health care industry in the way of risk. It is pretty clear that the environment is dynamic with daily, if not hourly, changes. Risk managers must be willing to meet the challenge to improve quality of care, meet the needs and expectations of patients and payors, and reduce the potential for loss.
