What did physicians read on Medscape during 2010? Far and away, the biggest story was healthcare reform. Medscape chronicled the legislative arguments and continues to report on the ongoing court battles. Rather than single out a particular news story, we have clustered the most up-to-date information about these important stories in our Healthcare Reform Resource Center. No surprise, physicians were also intensely interested in the range of new information that affected patient care as well as news that concerns the business of medicine today. The top 10 most important articles, as determined by how many of our members chose to read them, are provided below.
