Abstract:
The BRTF report can serve as a catalyst for change in health services management and accreditation. Many of their recommendations should be widely endorsed by our professional community; others demand careful consideration and will promote a useful dialog. There are a good many challenges involved with implementing these changes, and they will require time, creativity and a great deal of hard work. Only time will tell if history affords the Blue Ribbon Task Force's Report the same stature as the Prall, Olsen, and Dixon reports. Other position papers will no doubt follow that extend as well as refute its recommendations. The real value of this report will be in the dialog and change process it promotes.
