NOTICE The project that is the subject of this report was approved by
the Governing Board of the National Research Council, whose members are
drawn from the Councils of the National Academy of Sciences, the
National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine. The
members of the Committee responsible for the report were chosen for
their special competencies and with regard for appropriate balance.
This report has been reviewed by a group other than the authors
according to procedures approved by a Report Review Committee
consisting of members of the National Academy of Sciences, the National
Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine.
The Institute of Medicine was chartered in 1970 by the National Academy
of Sciences to enlist distinguished members of appropriate professions
in the examination of policy matters pertaining to the health of the
public. In this, the Institute acts under both the Academy's 1863
congressional charter responsibility to be an advisor to the Federal
Government, and its own initiative in identifying issues of medical
care, research, and education e
This volume is the final report of a planning study conducted under
grants from the American Medical Association, the American Nurses'
Association, and the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, contracts with
the Health Care Financing Administration, the National Institute on
Aging, and support from the National Research Council Fund, a pool of
private, discretionary, nonfederal funds that is used to support a
program of acadPmy-initiated studies of national issues in which
science and technology figure significantly. The NRC Fund consists of
contributions from a consortium of private foundations including the
Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Charles E. Culpeper Foundation,
the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the John D. and Catherine T.
MacArthur Foundation, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Rockefeller
Foundation, and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation; the Academy Industry
Program, which seeks annual contributions from companies that are
concerned with the health of U.S. science and technology and with
public policy issues that have technological content; and the National
Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering endowments.
