title: Humanitarian responsibilities and corporate medicine.
abstract: The practitioner's moral mandate to administer to those in need is seriously compromised by recent changes in the medical marketplace. A clinician and an administrator encourage emerging medical corporations voluntarily to assume more responsibility for the poor and indigent. They also challenge PAs to champion the cause of those who cannot afford proper medical attention.
