Abstract:
Standing on the brink of a new decade, Texas physicians have a lot to look forward to. They also have a lot to worry about. Cancer research may make it possible to intervene in the disease process. At the same time, the Health Care Financing Administration is threatening to tighten its reins on peer review. Expansion of the Medicaid program will assure care for more pregnant women and children.
