The Future of Medical Schools and Teaching Hospitals in the Era of Managed Care.
Pardes, Herbert
Academic Medicine, v72 n2 p97-102 Feb 1997
Academic medical centers, threatened by erosion of infrastructure, declining academic workforce, marketplace forces diminishing quality and access, and shrinking funds, must not rely on managed care, the pharmaceutical industry, or foundations to provide necessary support. They must communicate the dangers they face and persuade government to provide separate revenue streams for research, education, and care for the underserved. (Author/MSE)
