Quality. Medical care's answer to Madison Avenue

E.H. Helt and J.A. Pelikan

American Journal of Public Health, 1975, vol. 65, issue 3, 284-290

Abstract: This essay criticizes existing approaches to medical care quality as unrealistic in their political and economic assumptions and for being hopelessly biased toward abstract professional categories rather than health as a basic human condition. Proposed is a new set of premises which would yield a health system oriented toward a more meaningful concept of quality.
