    Abstract:
    Health Care reform rapidly changes the US health system and enters our "free system" with various aspects. The understanding of the buzzwords in managed care and the so-called managed competition are the context for making informed decisions about our future.

We must know to ask the right questions and hopefully find the correct answers for the benefit of our patient.
