Feedback mechanisms regarding consequences (or their likelihood) are needed so that individual can make behavior choices. Conclusion Regarding the conflicts among social needs, professional ethics, realistic economics, and political regulation, Gordon (1993) concluded his book fittingly: “The intelligent reader will have grasped that the potential of medicine is infinite, the demands on medicine must be unrestrained, but the resources for medicine are limited. Unless a fearless politician strikes a non-political compromise between all three, the history of medicine, like the history of the world in 1066 and All That, will come to an abrupt end.

Many of these recommendations had been advocated over many centuries as essentials for a healthful life. The inflammatory and infectious nature of many diseases began to be recognized. Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis recognized the contagious basis for puerperal fever and advocated that handwashing by clinicians could largely prevent this deadly scourge. Embarrassed by Semmelweis, his contemporaries terminated his employment. Progress was often not cheerfully received. Medical Science and Technology Progress Despite Opposition For example, in the last half of that century, even though adequate anesthesia was available for surgery, some surgery continued to be performed without it.

Cost and Quality Issues Arise During the 1930s, health care accounted for about 1% of the gross domestic product (GDP) in the Unites States; today that figure is about 15%. The hospitals of the 1940s were very labor-intensive, but hospitals now have tremendous investment in expensive high-tech equipment as well. They have become capital-intensive, but specialized personnel are needed to operate and manage these systems. ” The United States’ National Academy of Sciences publication, Organizational Linkages —The Productivity Paradox, examines the lack of improved productivity commensurate with the massive expenditures on information technology (IT) in the late twentieth century (Harris, 1994).
