The thoughtful essays in this book by highly regarded experts are valuable because they help us to order and clarify our thinking about issues central to the current public policy dialogue. UWE E. REINHARDT Professor of Economics and Public Affairs Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs Those who have responsible positions in health care administration or govern- ment, who pay for health services, or who practice medicine should read this collection of essays. In addressing uncompensated care and long-term care, the thrust of new payment strategies, provider and physician responses, and associated ethical challenges, the authors have brought vividly into focus several of the most timely and relevant public policy issues of the day.
