Homo Economicus: escaping the traps of managed competition [Elektronische Daten] [DONALD W. LIGHT] This paper examines managed competition as a solution to the inefficiencies, bureaucracy and sclerosis of national health care systems. Managed competition promises to overcome the many dangers and limitations of using competition in medicine that have been previously identified. However, the inner logic of managed competition has several contradictions and flaws that undermine its own goals and may even make equitable, efficient health care more difficult to attain. The paper concludes with recommendations for attaining the same goals more effectively. © European Journal of Public Health DEBATE nationallicence health economics nationallicence health policy nationallicence United States nationallicence Great Britain nationallicence Germany nationallicence The European Journal of Public Health Oxford University Press 5/3(1995), 145-154 1101-1262 5:3<145 1995 5 eurpub https://doi.org/10.1093/eurpub/5.3.145 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 other jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/eurpub/5.3.145 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- LIGHT DONALD W.
