Medical Ethics in Managed Care / Is it
Possible? :
Over the course of the last 3 decades, medical ethics have
shifted from the responsibility of the physician to the
responsibility of the managed care organization (MCO) and as a
result, the lines between appropriate care and cost feasibility
have blurred the view of the ethical treatment of patients. In
pursuit of cost management, managed care organizations have
implemented policies that some physicians suggest are not only
inappropriate, but also unethical. This 45 page research study
considers the nature of managed care, the issue of ethical
medical treatment and considers the question of whether
medical ethics can be applied within the managed care system.
