Opinion: Move Forward with Evidence-based Care as Foundation

Evidence-based care should be the bedrock of health care moving forward, the authors of a recent opinion piece published on The Hill suggest.

“The delivery of evidence-based care should be the foundation of the new normal,” they write. “We all agree that there is more than enough money in U.S. health care; it’s time that we start spending it on services that will make us a healthier nation.”
