As Dr Benjamin points out, there is a critical need for leadership in this area by our professional organizations. As has been proven repeatedly, unless professional organizations in medicine assume responsibility and leadership for important issues related to the quality of care, the federal government and/or its regulatory agencies will fill this vacuum. The resultant rules and regulations may not be to our liking. As Dr Benjamin stated, the time is now and the responsibility is ours.
