title: U.S. health care in transition: a response to the Health Security Act of 1993.
abstract: Although the President and Mrs. Clinton are to be commended for their courage and commitment in bringing the issue of health care reform to the forefront of national concern, their proposal has "too much regulation and too much government." The author fears that the plan will not work due to its emphasis on global budgeting, price controls, and the regulatory nature of the regional health alliances. He advocates a reform system based on the American values of innovation, entrepreneurship, and the spirit of free enterprise.
