title: The pursuit and possibilities of evidence-based medicine.
abstract: Evidence-based medicine has been used to guide healthcare that works, but sometimes, the system delivers care that ends up too little, too much, or just wrong. Participants at a Washington, DC, forum looked recently at what can be done to make a smoother path to the most effective set of practices that improve healthcare quality.
