Description:
There's no question that consumers are beginning to exert strong influence over the health care system. Recent examples include the public outcry over privacy, as well as the backlash against managed care. According to the research in Beyond Managed Care, the aging baby boomer population -- more health conscious, demanding, and affluent than their predecessors -- will exert even more radical influence over the way health care is delivered, eventually replacing a system that remains unresponsive to the needs of patients with one that has adapted the facility of other consumer-driven industries, such as e-retail.
