Abstract
Physicians should be aware that the release of physician-specific information by the Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council (PHC4) may have a significant impact on decisions made by patients or potential patients. This article, which outlines PHC4's proposed Research Plan about coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and related issues, is a follow-up to "First Report Card for Physicians Due This Summer" [Pennsylvania Medicine, May 1992]
