Conference Series ; [Proceedings], 2005, vol. 50, issue Jun, 119-125

Abstract: This session will provide an overview of the U.S. health care system with an emphasis on trends observed since the reforms of the early 1990s. ; How has the health care system adjusted to the introduction of market-oriented medicine? And what have been the consequences for access to care, health care costs (public and private), and the quality of care over the past decade? How does the U.S. health care system measure up in international comparisons, for instance? Does managed care work as its advocates expected or have inappropriate consumer and provider incentives undermined this experiment? What are the implications for reform?
