Excerpt from Buying Medical Technology in the Dark: How National Health Reform Can Turn on the Lights and Promote Technology Innovation and Cost Savings: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Regulation, Business Opportunities, and Technology of the Committee on Small Business, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session, Washington, DC, October 21, 1993
As we will see this morning, this lack of comparative information permits questionable medical technologies to be widely used for years before their performance record catches up with them. This medical technology information gap has produced two problems.
First, patients can be needless] harmed when safer technologies are replaced by inferior ones, and, second, vast sums of money are wasted on costly technologies when others would accomplish the same result for less. Every single one of the major health reform proposals now before the Congress gives short shrift to the medical technology information gap.
