Clifton Gaus, Sc.D., joined the federal Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR) last July, at a time when the agency's star had reached its zenith. With positive response from the field for its work in outcomes measurement research and the development of clinical guidelines, AHCPR was able to cite an array of accomplishments since its creation by Congress in 1989 (when the National Center for Health Services Research was subsumed into the new agency). But now AHCPR faces possibly severe budget cuts, or even elimination, by congressional leaders bent on balancing the budget. Gaus spoke last month with executive editor Mark Hagland on the agency's budget battles, its achievements to date, and its future.
克利夫顿·高斯博士去年7月加入了联邦医疗保健政策与研究机构（AHCPR），当时该机构正处于鼎盛时期。由于该机构在成果测量研究和临床指南制定方面的工作得到了业界的积极回应，自1989年国会创建该机构（当时国家卫生服务研究中心并入这个新机构）以来，AHCPR能够列举一系列成就。但现在，AHCPR面临着可能被执意平衡预算的国会领导人大幅削减预算，甚至被撤销的局面。高斯上个月与执行编辑马克·哈格兰德谈到了该机构的预算之争、迄今取得的成就及其未来。
