Summary

Two revolutions--health system change and the building of the national information infrastructure--are transforming American health care and dramatically affecting the health of Americans. The specific shape and pace of this transformation are impossible to predict today, but our observations of early initiatives give us some modest confidence that present day concepts of what determines health and disease and our methods of intervening will be dramatically different in the no too distant future.
