Aiming higher to enhance professionalism: beyond accreditation and certification.

Chassin MR, Baker DW. JAMA. 2015;313:1795-1796.

This commentary discusses the need for more explicit emphasis on building physician skills and attitudes to support zero harm, process improvement, high reliability, and commitment to excellence in all areas of medical care.
