Health PAC Bull. 1987 Nov;17(5):4-7.
The author details the difficulties that recent structural changes in the nation's health-care system have imposed on physicians, hospitals, and patients, and suggests that the resulting dissatisfaction has prepared the way for a national health-care compaign. Unless progressives insist on the democratic control of health care, he argues, the nation will continue to find the terms of that care dictated by corporate, as opposed to public, interests.
作者详细阐述了该国医疗保健系统近期的结构变化给医生、医院和患者带来的困难,并指出由此产生的不满情绪为全国性的医疗保健运动铺平了道路。他认为,除非进步人士坚持对医疗保健进行民主控制,否则该国将继续发现医疗保健的条款由企业利益而非公共利益所决定。
