Managed care programs: an employer perspective.
Throughout the 1980s, employers made many health care benefit plan modifications that were directed toward containing costs. This chapter discusses potential managed care program changes that may occur in the coming years. Specifically reviewed are partnerships between employers and managed care entities; possible features of the next generation of managed are plans; and dimensions of a cost-benefit analysis that employers could use to gauge the cost-effectiveness of future plan changes.
