Improving clinical decisionmaking as a means of achieving cost-effective medical care.
Published research related to physicians' clinical decisions shows that many interventions have been only marginally effective. In this column, John Kralewski comments on that research. The column is intended as a point of ongoing analysis of health services research of importance to physician executives. The column is edited by Dr. Kralewski, who heads the Institute for Health Services Research at the University of Minnesota.
