Sommario/riassunto |
|
The debate rages on over how to cope with the rising costs of medical care?proposed solutions range from a single payer system with a broad government control to loosely defined market-driven plans. The authors look at three key elements of health care costs and offer thoughtful, realistic suggestions to help stem the tide of rising expenses for everyone. |
