Medical Boards: Better doctors, or less enforcement?
Medical Economics, 05/30/08
Murray D et al. - The number of disciplinary actions taken against doctors has dropped during the past two years, to 5,319 in 2007, according to the Federation of State Medical Boards. That's 255 fewer actions than were recorded in 2006, and nearly 900 less than in 2005.
