title: Responding to managed care proposals.
abstract: To continue to use the term alternative delivery systems in relation to managed care is inappropriate, writes Darrell Schryver, D.P.A., since these systems are rapidly becoming the predominant method for delivering health care. Because such managed care programs are administered by individuals trained in business, it is imperative that medical practices adopt a similar business attitude to negotiate advantageously with these programs.
