Description

Medical decision making involves complex variables that can lead to life-or-death outcomes. This comprehensive resource from Sage Publishing explores the fundamental elements that shape healthcare quality. It addresses the diagnostic and therapeutic uncertainties that physicians face daily, alongside the conflicting values held by patients and insurers.
