America's Vital Signs
In his presentation, Dr. Salgo predicts that the progress in fighting heart disease will have a tremendous impact on our nation’s healthcare delivery system and the future of medicine itself.

The key to achieving this bright future is to act now to implement a few substantive changes. The millennium will not drift in the right direction. Professionals must guide the future by their direct action and behavior to craft it into the model they desire.
