Paper Abstract
5 pages in length. In comparing and contrasting whether or not HMO's truly do improve health care, or if they are merely a money-making entity with little regard for human wellness, it can be argued that while the principle behind the program is beneficial, the actual reality is just the opposite. There is no question that health maintenance organizations (HMOs) are in need of some major improvement efforts. Time and time again, anecdotal accounts of personal ongoing difficulties between patients and their HMOs have been documented; such documentation has reached epidemic proportion with regard to the lack of quality care throughout the industry. This is not new information for those within the HMO framework. The writer discusses how the problem is determining the most effective avenue to follow when attempting to improve the system. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
