Abstract
South Carolina will soon give physicians the ability to access physician-specific comparison data on hospitalizations, length of stay, complications, and outcomes through the Internet. The project director says this will allow physicians to manage care and dramatically improve outcomes. The state's two medical schools plan to use the data to drive their decisions on which continuing medical education programs to offer.
