Useless quality data

Dr. Wes doesn’t understand what the fuss was about:

The real outcome question I’d pose is this: Is all of this retrospective review of health care delivery in America worth its cost to gather and process the data when we find it changes how only 0.8% of the hospitals in America will be reimbursed?

Or might our time, energy, and efforts be better expended improving health care facilities, providing programs for the poor, and taking care of patients?

But then, think of all the administrators who might become unemployed, eh?
