title: New power strategies (the battle for control).
abstract: When yesterday's home care company has become today's primary care network, and yesterday's purchaser is today's provider, it's no longer enough to look at hospital/physician integration for clues to the new health care road map. Instead, it's vital to examine how all the players in the health care system are interacting, and what the interchanges of power and activity among them mean. In a probing analysis, Contributing Editor Alden Solovy applies an innovative macroeconomic theory to the radical reshaping of health care now taking place.
