[The health care revolution in the USA].
The changes in medical care in the USA have not been completed yet. The government which will be established after the following presidential elections will be compelled to deal with the organisation of medical care in order to make the financial participation of the federal government manageable. The American medical workers must unite in their procedures in order to bring the negotiations with the government institutions, insurers and health maintaining institutions to a successful end. The struggle for medical independence is of great importance as it enables to suppress stereotypes and obsolete traditions, and leads to innovative procedures which represent the basis for progress in medical science.
