Description
- Abstract:
- As access to a variety of different types of medical information expands, patients in the United States, either in addition to or in lieu of Western mainstream medical treatments, are increasingly using complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Findings in 2008 conducted by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health and the National Center for Health Statistics showed that in 2007, 38.3% of U.S. adults were using CAM. Research into how provider interaction between these two groups affects treatment decisions is extremely limited.
