    Measuring Up: Musings of a Family Doctor on the Employee Time Clock

    Ruth Kannai

    Background A family physician in Israel reflects on how the introduction of an employee time clock at the health maintenance organization where she works influences everyday clinical decisions that affect the quality of care she provides her patients. She shares the mantra she routinely turns to with each hastened visit to reaffirm her professional integrity, pledging her allegiance first and foremost to her patients and her own standards of care.
