Managed Care Mindset Results in a Coronary

Submitted by Dr. JG Kaplan on Mon, 2009-05-25 07:13

Tim Russert’s sudden death last week at 58 from a heart attack was another statistic in that he was being treated for CAD and his doctors “did not realize how severe the disease was." Is the managed care mindset detrimental to getting the right care at the right time and place??
