title: Health care reform: separate and unequal?
abstract: The author discusses the current and evolving forces which are operating to prevent the establishment of a universal, comprehensive, equitable, cost-effective health care system for all Americans. It is the contention of the author that managed competition, the most popular of the plans being discussed by the Clinton administration, will perpetuate the separate and unequal health care system which currently exists. The author supports this conclusion through a detailed critique of the proposed managed competition system.
