The citizen participation program of the Los Angeles County Health Systems Agency represents one of the most ambitious efforts at implementing the public involvement provisions of PL 93-641. The first year of this program is discussed and analyzed through a participation costs theoretical framework. Specific costs which are inherent in the organizational design and introduced by the implementation procedures adopted are identified and discussed. Levels of participation after one year of operation are examined and found consistent with the high cost of participation in this program.
洛杉矶县卫生系统机构的公民参与计划是实施第93 - 641号公法中公众参与条款最具雄心的努力之一。本文通过参与成本理论框架对该计划的第一年进行了讨论和分析。确定并讨论了组织设计中固有的以及实施程序所引入的具体成本。考察了该计划运行一年后的参与程度,发现其与该计划高昂的参与成本相一致。
