Global Budgets Versus Competitive Cost-Control Strategies

By Patricia Danzon

This incisive and timely analysis of American healthcare reform, from Wharton health economist Patricia M. Danzon, weighs the Clinton Health Security Act's global budgets against market-based alternatives, examining health insurance, guaranteed benefit packages, financing, managed care, and cost control to reveal the hidden costs of regulating medical spending and what universal coverage may truly demand of patients, taxpayers, and policymakers.

This book discusses how global budgets relate to competitive cost-control strategies.
