The emergence of cost control and managed care stem from economic realities. While managed care is built on economic principles, it promises to change the way Americans consume health services. As one of the largest single groups providing services to acutely and chronically-ill adults, medical-surgical nurses must understand the key aspects of managed care and how its implementation may change practice.
