The Health Care Marketplace explores the incentives physicians, hospitals, employers, and long-term care and managed care firms have to show the extent to which economic forces govern behavior in this industry. Where performance of the health care system is less than optimal, The Health Care Marketplace considers public policy options including government intervention and explicit rationing. Excerpts from health industry antitrust litigations are featured at the end of many chapters, providing a real world understanding of how the health care marketplace behaves. Comparisons with the systems of Canada, Israel, and the Netherlands further illustrate the opportunities and complex dilemmas inherent in any proposed reform of the U.S. health care marketplace
