Hi.
00:01
All right, what is the motivation behind the cost control features of managed care? all right.
00:04
So what the cost control features of managed care mean? what that actually means is it, managed care means what influencing the way physicians do things, which managed care means, and cost control means financial incentive structures of medical care.
00:22
Okay, so that means that the cost controls are trying to keep down the costs of the things the doctors, decide to do.
00:32
Okay, so that's what it is.
00:36
That's the whole point of it.
00:37
So it's making sure doctors don't pick ridiculously expensive things, because they don't really pay attention to costs.
00:44
Like that's the nurses and the accountants in the hospital.
00:47
The doctors just think what's the best thing to do to this person.
00:51
It's a little different than cost control.
00:54
All right, so it does influence the way physicians practice it...
