Managed Care Ethics
Medical ethical dilemmas in managed care look, sound, and feel different from those in fee-for-service medicine. The first book to address the new set of ethical problems facing managed care, Managed Care Ethics is written for physicians practicing in HMOs and others adjusting to the new health care environment. The author, a physician/ethicist who practices in the managed care environment, provides the context for constructive discussions between physicians and their patients. He offers ways to enable patients to achieve their health care objectives and to resolve the inconsistencies between the business ethic of cost containment and the medical ethics that are still at the center of health care
