Propositions Counter to Common Fallacies

As counterpropositions to the common fallacies about HTM we offer the following:

Americans want more, not less, HTM.

High-tech medicine cannot be held responsible for rising health expenditures; there is no low-cost alternative.

It is not true that much HTM is dysfunctional. What is true is that many elderly patients die within twelve months of hospitalization.

More and better technology assessment and outcome studies could contribute to improving the quality of care, but it is unlikely that such studies will contain costs effectively.
