| Abstract
|
:
|
"Discussions of managed care frequently begin and end with an opposition between the Hippocratic ethic of dedication to patient welfare and a business ethic of self-interest in the service of efficiency. In The Ethics of Managed Care, Mary R. Anderlik approaches managed care as a problem of organizations. Rejecting analysis in terms of a simple dichotomy of "medicine vs. business," she argues that attention should be directed to management as manipulation, the neglect of internal goods such as satisfaction in professional accomplishment, and three kinds of moral myopia associated with organizations."--Jacket.
