- Title
Geriatric Medicine Leadership of Health Care Transformation: To Be or Not To Be?
- Authors
Heckman, George A.; Molnar, Frank J.; Lee, Linda
- Abstract
Geriatric Medicine is well-suited to inform and lead healthcare system redesign to address the needs of seniors with complex conditions. We posit that geriatricians must urgently consider how to "brand" Geriatric Medicine in a manner that garners active support from those outside the specialty, including how to adapt practice patterns to better meet the needs of patients and of the health-care system.
