In this lucid, balanced account, Carl F. Ameringer tells how this revolution came into being when the U.S. Supreme Court and Congress prompted the antitrust agencies of the federal government-the Federal Trade Commission and the Justice Department-to change the rules of the health care system. Ameringer lays out the key events that led up to this regime change; explores its broader social, political, and economic contexts; examines the views of both its proponents and opponents; and considers its current trajectory. 410 0$aCalifornia/Milbank books on health and the public ;$v19. 606 $aMedical care$zUnited States$xFinance$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aHealth care reform$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 610 $a1970s. 610 $aamerica. 610 $aamerican economy. 610 $aantitrust agencies. 610 $abusiness economics. 610 $adoctors. 610 $aeconomic system. 610 $aeconomics. 610 $afederal government. 610 $afederal trade commission. 610 $ahealth and medicine. 610 $ahealth care professionals. 610 $ahealth care system. 610 $ahealth care. 610 $ajustice department. 610 $alegal. 610 $amarket based health care. 610 $amedical professionals. 610 $amedical revolution. 610 $amodern medicine. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apolitical. 610 $asocial change. 610 $aunited states congress. 610 $aunited states. 610 $aus supreme court. 615 0$aMedical care$xFinance$xHistory 615 0$aHealth care reform$xHistory 676 $a362.1/0425 700 $aAmeringer$b Carl F$01651472 712 02$aMilbank Memorial Fund. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825462603321 996 $aThe health care revolution$94001442 997 $aUNINA
