Abstract

Not all major advances in medicine are attributable to new technologies. Some of the most significant advances result from changes in medical systems - the way in which care is delivered. Hospice care is subserved by refinements in technical expertise and equipment, by development of sophisticated, specialized protocols, and by well-trained nonphysician providers; yet at its basis hospice is really a change in the global approach to and context of a broadly defined clinical problem.
