title: Physicians urged to regain control of profession.
abstract: Physician responsibility--to patients, colleagues, the profession, and himself--was discussed at the annual Congress on Medical Education. Physicians were urged to provide decisive leadership in society; take the initiative in CME; and participate in all aspects of physician performance evaluation, including support for impaired physician programs. Possible problems faced by hospitals due to new restrictions on FMGs were discussed, as well as who will replace FMGs.
