The History of Managed Care
By Michel Accad, MD
EDITOR’S NOTE: Dr. Accad practices internal medicine and cardiology in San Francisco.

I wish to make one clarification and one prediction regarding employed physicians.
The clarification is this: There is a common misconception that if healthcare operated under free market conditions, it would primarily be a cottage industry of solo practices and of small physician-owned hospitals. Such operations would not develop the capabilities of large healthcare entities that we commonly associate with central planning.
ASSESSMENT: In reality, however, the opposite would be the case.
