- Summary
- Managed Care on Trial seeks to arm healthcare providers with knowledge, tools and strategies that will better enable them to bridge the gap between fiscal mandates and clinical standards, to pursue the right medical course and to reduce the financial risk of negative publicity and a costly trial. It also offers a step-by-step guide for consumers seeking better ways of addressing and solving such serious problems as challenges to provider access and denial of care. Included in the book are reviews of some of the most dramatic legal cases involving managed care and analysis of what these cases mean to providers and patients alike.
