Managed care.
Many say 1994 will be the year for health-care reform, but those in the thick of the current health delivery system know that 1993 has already brought many sweeping reforms. These reforms will be studied, refined, and tailored for the national plan. What types of reforms are laboratorians seeing now? What kinds of changes can we expect in the upcoming months and years? We asked laboratory managers those very questions. The result has been a two-part As We See It. In the last CLMR, we covered physician partnerships and the system laboratory. In this issue, we will cover alliances with hospitals and laboratory cost reductions as we ask: What can the laboratory community expect from a managed-care environment.
