Seven ways to reduce unnecessary medical costs
George D. Lundberg, Medscape Internal Medicine, August 24, 2009

  • 1. Intensive medical therapy should be substituted for coronary artery bypass grafting


  • 2. Intensive medical therapy should be substituted for angioplasty and stenting


  • 3. Nonindicated prostate-specific antigen screening for prostate cancer should be stopped


  • 4. Screen mammography should be stopped for women younger than 50 with no clinical indication


  • 5. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging is unnecessary to guide therapeutic decisions most of the time


  • 6. We must stop paying for chemotherapeutic false hope


  • 7. Death, which comes to us all, should be as dignified and free from pain and suffering as possible
