[Multi-morbidity as a responsibility: 1,000 illnesses--one health. The physician's image 200].
The prototype physician 2000 A.D. will have to be able to recognise multimorbidity and its individual importance in a general medical and social sense. There will be a specifically challenge in the fields of individual prophylaxis, interdisciplinary communication, integration of all nursing and treating partners and the ethical judgement between individually useful and theoretically possible treatment options. Medical education and social systems will have to provide enough knowledge and skills as well as opportunities to allow this necessary development of our future physicians 2000 A.D.
