[Involvement of physicians in quality of medical care improvement activities].
Quality of medical care provided at present in most countries, worldwide is not optimal and various cost-containment efforts may further threaten it. Activities to improve and safeguard quality of care are required. Physicians are not sufficiently aware of the importance of these activities and tend not to take active part in them. Should physicians not be able or not willing to initiate and conduct such activities, other, non-medical factors will impose themselves and take over this function.
