Public hospitals want out of politics. Executives say they need the freedom to cut costs--and deals--like everyone else. In a world where it's compete or die, many public hospitals are going private.
As health systems grow, the number of trustees and governing boards often must shrink to cut back on red tape and budget bottlenecks. Hospital management also typically needs restructuring, with fewer CEOs and more regional managers taking care of business.

As doctors jump at offers from practice managers, many ignore business basics. But even a good lawyer can't cover everything. "No matter how carefully you make an agreement with one company, if it is swallowed up by another, it can be very different than you anticipated," says a doctor who sold his Southern California network only to be fired after a change in owners. "You could go to bed with Albert Schweitzer and wake up with Attila the Hun."

Based on a family systems/social-ecological perspective, mothers and fathers of 8- and 9-year-old children with spina bifida (n = 55; 28 male, 27 female) were examined in comparison to a matched group of parents with 8- and 9-year-old able-bodied children (n = 55; 29 male, 26 female) across several areas of functioning (individual, parental, and marital). Findings suggested that mothers and fathers in the spina bifida sample tended to report more psychosocial stress than their counterparts in the able-bodied sample. Specifically, mothers and fathers in the spina bifida group reported less parental satisfaction than parents in the able-bodied group. Mothers in the spina bifida group reported less perceived parental competence, more social isolation, and less adaptability to change; fathers in the spina bifida group reported more psychological symptoms. No differences between the spina bifida and able-bodied groups were found with respect to marital satisfaction. Coping predictors of adjustment tended to vary as a function of parent gender rather than group status.
