Holding: Carr upheld the medical-malpractice statute of repose against the Article I, section 21 challenge by relying on the announced crisis and the conclusion that no less stringent measure would solve the identified problem.
Boundary: Whether later evidence, changed conditions, or additional alternatives affect application of that reasoning is a research and litigation argument, not an existing overruling of Carr.
