environment. We must be cognizant of just who the current stakeholder is and constantly remind ourselves of how important they are. To fully
assess Medicare and the potential impact its fall would have it is prudent to obtain input from these stakeholders, evaluate that input, and initiate measures which have the most likelihood of stabilizing the top heavy system and halting its rapid spiral to the bottom. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
