Abstract
This year, we have the best chance in a generation of enacting legislation worthy of being called health care reform and of setting the United States on the path to high-quality, affordable health care for all Americans. The recent commitment by several major stakeholders — including the American Medical Association — to slowing the growth of health care spending is a promising development. But the controversy about whether the organizations actually agreed to a 1.5-percentage-point reduction in annual spending growth is just one indication that success is still far from assured.Keywords
