Behind closed doors: Accountability and responsibility in patient care
Journal of Medicine and Philosophy 25 (1):28 – 47 (2000)
Abstract
In this paper, I examine the notion of accountability and its historical evolution in health care. Using medical mistakes and adverse patient outcomes as my focus, I examine the interests served by particular models of accountability and argue for a model of collective fiduciary responsibility in U.S. health care today.Author's Profile
