Synopsis
What should be government's role in a market-oriented health caresystem? What's the appropriate amount of regulation? Who should regulate-states, federal government, or marketforces?

Sanders, retired chairman and CEO GlaxoInc. and former general director, Massachusetts General Hospital, Regulating Managed Care In today's market-driven health care system, issues such as consumer choice, access to specialists, denials of coverage, and "drive-through" methods of care delivery have been thrust to the forefront of the managed care debate. Wanting nothing more than to create a managed care system that is accessible and affordable to all Americans policy makers, clinicians, and consumers are working to find the right balance between competition and regulation that will insure a high quality and compassionate health care system. But regulating markets is no easy task, and individuals-even those with similar objectives-differ on the major questions to be resolved. Can managed care be effectively regulated? Led by Stuart Altman, Uwe Reinhardt, and David Shactman, Regulating Managed Care brings together twenty-six of the foremost health policy experts, offering the rare opportunity to listen in while they debate this critical social issue. These influential contributors-including managed competition's architect, Alain Enthoven-provide leaders essential background on the critical issues, summarize key survey findings on how Americans feel about managed care, assess what areas are thought to need regulation, and examine the effect of proposed regulation on health care access, cost, and quality. From policy to practicality, Regulating Managed Care gives health care executives, board members, and policy makers insight into the tough choices facing policy makers and the critical issues involved in ultimately improving the quality of medical services for the communities they serve.
