Charting the Future of Health Care

            Policy, Politics, and Public  Health
            JACK A. MEYER AND  MARION   EIN LEWIN

  Change  has been occurring in the health care sector at a far
  more  dizzying pace than analysts foresaw a few years ago.
  The  authors of this timely volume examine some of the
  most  important trends and suggest where the forces be-
  hind them may  be taking us.
      Part one considers how federal and state budgetary
  pressures affect payment for health care services. Allen
  Schick describes the stringent federal budgetary environ-
  ment,  then Paul Ginsburg weighs the options in paying
  physicians under Medicare, and Lucy Johns describes Cal-
  ifornia's policy of selective hospital contracting.
      In part two, Clement Bezold suggests the implications
  of current and possible future trends for providers of
  health care. Richard Rettig addresses critical issues in the
  development  and diffusion of new medical technologies.
      In part three, which focuses on individual health,
  Louise Russell explains problems in determining the cost
  effectiveness of preventive measures, while Ruth Behrens
  discusses the growing corporate practice of promoting
  health in the workplace through wellness programs. Mer-
  vyn  Silverman examines the newest threat to our public
  health-AIDS.   Finally, Susan Blank and Thomas  Brock
  consider the social benefits of providing the working poor
  with health coverage.
