The next year promises to be an important one in health policy, in cardiology and in many other areas of medicine, as we set our sights on significant transformations across our health care system. What improvements can you anticipate that will enrich your practice environment and enhance the care you provide to your patients? Host Dr. Jack Lewin welcomes Dr. Alfred Bove, the newly installed president of the American College of Cardiology (ACC), for a look ahead at key points of emphasis during the coming year, from more rigorous quality measurements, to patient empowerment and value of care, to the broader issue of health care reform and the ACC's role in furthering the priorities of cardiologists and care providers across the entire health care spectrum.
