    Author: May AN.
    Journal: Physician Exec; 1986; 12(5):6-8. PubMed ID: 10311693.
    Abstract:
    Much of the turmoil in the health care field is a direct result of pressures for reductions in health care costs. Many, particularly physicians, are concerned about the impact of cost-driven changes on the quality of care. The author of this article proposes five criteria that can serve as a structure on which to build a consensus for defining quality.
