Description

The decade of the 1980s promised basic reform in the provision of health care services. There were many proposals for systematic change fueled by the competitive forces that would be unleashed by deregulation. This book assesses the changes that have actually occurred in the US health care system and analyzes the nation's four largest metropolitan centres which, together with their states, account for 74 million people or roughly one third of the nation's population.
