Consumer-centered vs. job-centered health insurance
J Nurs Adm.
1980 Jan.
Abstract
Today's dominant health care financing system blocks economic competition and rewards doctors and hospitals for cost-increasing behavior. The author believes that the most effective and acceptable way to get health care costs under control, and at the same time achieve universal coverage, would be through a system of fair economic competition. He discusses his Consumer Choice Health Plan proposal and describes how one of the main barriers to competition is today's system of job-linked health insurance.
