Practicing physicians in the 1990s are under intense pressure from all

sides. Large insurers threaten clinical autonomy while increasing professional

risk; complex contracts demand new levels of business expertise; and a skeptical

public questions skills and honesty more than ever before.


This timely new book

is the first to offer real solutions to these problems from the perspective of

the working physician. Edited by Dr. Steven Isenberg, and featuring

contributions from experts in law and business as well as clinical medicine,

MANAGED CARE, OUTCOMES, AND QUALITY gives the physician or administrator the

help he or she needs to ensure top-quality care in the 1990's and

beyond.
