Med Group Manage J. 1992 Mar-Apr;39(2):24-6, 28, 30-1.

Abstract

America is now at an important crossroad regarding its health care system, writes H. Wilson Graves, M.A., M.P.A., explaining that Americans increasingly see this system as a "paradox of excess and deprivation." Graves believes increased competition is the only viable alternative to revive our ailing health care system.
