Do health reform and malpractice reform fit together?

Author:	David A Hyman; William M Sage; American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research.
Publisher:	Washington, DC : American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, [2011]
Series:	AEI Health policy working paper, no. 2010-02.
Edition/Format:	eBook : Document : English
