✦ Synopsis

The paper critically appraises current efforts to bolster the accountability of clinicians. The paper opens with an examination of the values, meaning and rules which underpin different accountability systems. Against this background we canvass conceptual, practical and ethical issues which need to be addressed if efforts to extend the accountability of clinicians are to meet with success.
