Time to face the healthcare challenge.
The Affordable Care Act is upon us. The success, extent, and quality of the resulting care is not fully under our control. That is surely an understatement. Healthcare is one-fifth of the United States' Gross National Product, and it is no longer ours to control. Nonetheless, we have all taken an oath, the Hippocratic Oath, and in 2012, that oath includes being advocates for our patients and helping insure that we, as a nation, "do no harm."
