VIP interview: Alain C. Enthoven, Ph.D.
Alain C. Enthoven, Ph.D., is the Mariner S. Eccles Professor of Public and Private Management in the Graduate School of Business at Stanford University. He hold degrees in Economics from Stanford University, Oxford University (where he was a Rhodes scholar), and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor Enthoven has been an articulate advocate for restructuring the health care system. His far-reaching proposals on "consumer choice health plans" and "managed competition" in the 1930s established an intellectual framework for much of the current debate on national health policy. As a leader of the Jackson Hole Group, he favors internal market reform and employer tax incentives as the most effective means to control unnecessary medical costs.
