Educational publisher Jones and Bartlett Publishers, Inc. (J&B), US, has announced the publication of the third edition of Managed Care: What It Is and How It Works. The book seeks to provide its readers with a solid understanding of how managed care actually works.
The latest edition contains substantial revisions as well as updates to earlier material. The introduction of new types of consumer-based health plans and services has practical implications throughout the book. Approaches to provider networks have been revised to take into account not only new types of products, but new approaches to reimbursement and incentive systems.
Managed Care, What It Is and How It Works may be ordered through the Jones and Bartlett Publishers website at www.jbpub.com. A transition guide, highlighting the new and updated chapters, is also available through www.jbpub.com.
