More precisely, the edict from Master Yoda: "Do. Or do not. There is no try."
One thing the industry must do, not try, is to end the sustainable growth rate, Wah said. Though the Senate approved a one-year delay, the AMA was deeply disappointed in the outcome. He said the association came away with a framework to end the SGR, with the support of both parties and more than 600 physician groups.
