title: Status quo won't work.
abstract: The division between those who provide health care services and those who pay for them may be widening. Costs continue to rise, quality remains ill-defined, and there don't seem to be any easy answers to the dilemma. Joseph W. Duva, Director of the New York Region Health/Welfare Benefits Consulting Practice of Ernst and Young, believes the answer has been found. While Director of Employee Benefits at Allied Signal Corp., he was instrumental in the formulation of a total managed health care plan for employees. He recently founded the Managed Health Care Association to share the experience at Allied Signal with others and to provide a business forum for exploration of the managed care concept. Duva's views on managed care as a cost containment strategy were the subject of an interview conducted by Physician Executive at the National Conference of Physician Executives in San Antonio in May.
