Incidence and prevalence of atrial fibrillation and associated mortality among Medicare beneficiaries, 1993-2007.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Report cards of risk-adjusted mortality rates of individual cardiac surgeons have been publicly available in New York State since 1991. A survey of New York cardiologists in 1996 found that these report cards had little effect on their referral recommendations to cardiac surgeons. It is unknown whether the i...
