Managed care as health care rationing.
This article is based on the author's presentations to the New York State Governor's Health Care Advisory Board's Task Force on the President's Health Care Plan, November 22, 1993, and to a hearing of the New York State Attorney General on the experience of consumers with health insurers and health maintenance organizations, September 20, 1993. His comments deal with the effects of the Clinton health care reform proposal and other forms of managed care on those most in need of care. Particularly interesting are his suggestions for protecting the rights of health care consumers.
