- Summary
- "Medicare: Issues in Political Economy will appeal to those interested in public policy and health care issues, legislators, policy analysts, government agencies and trade associations, as well as those teaching health care policy and financing in graduate courses and executive education programs."--BOOK JACKET.
- "Ronald Vogel examines the political and economic considerations of program reform and shows how Medicare could increasingly employ the managed care model for cost control to address the supply side of the equation. But more importantly, the pricing problem could be resolved by requiring providers to submit competitive, capitated, risk-adjusted bids to HCFA whose Medicare administration would be decentralized to the state level."--BOOK JACKET.
