Description
xxi, 293 p.; 24 cm.
Summary
  • The authors offer a compelling picture of today's health care industry: the problems to be solved, the threats that must be met, and the opportunities that lie ahead for those hospitals and physicians who are willing to challenge the status quo.
  • The authors present an insider's expose of the dramatic shift in modern medicine from traditional, health-oriented community care to the new era of bottom-line-focused medical treatment. The implications of this fundamental change in health care from Main Street to Wall Street are explored in a series of dialogues about the most recent changes in managed care, hospital governance, alliances between physicians and managers, and health care ethics.
