  • Title: Alternatives to Federal regulatory realignment of health care.
    Author: Kalkhof CJ.
    Journal: Healthc Financ Manage; 1994 Jan; 48(1):34, 36, 38 passim. PubMed ID: 10145932.
    Abstract:
    In this article, author Christopher J. Kalkhof puts forth the view that the U.S. healthcare system could be made more cost effective and cost efficient without the implementation of government-directed managed competition strategies. Noting that current private sector initiatives already are forming more cost-sensitive integrated delivery and financing mechanisms, Kalkhof asserts that corresponding realignment initiatives for publicly financed healthcare benefit programs would provide additional incentive and momentum for these private sector efforts without requiring reconfiguration of the healthcare system by the government.
