  • Title: The many elements of cost control.
    Author: McNerney WJ.
    Journal: West J Med; 1980 May; 132(5):385-91. PubMed ID: 7385848.
    Abstract:
    For Blue Cross and Blue Shield Plans, cost containment is not a new concern but an activity that has been carried on for years. It has now been given new emphasis by the urgencies of inflation and the new focus of national attention on health care costs as one of its more conspicuous phenomena-chiefly a result of the inflation but often mistaken for, and mislabeled as, a cause.
