This book is incredibly dry. While it is not necessarily a pleasurable read, the book does a great job of providing some foundational understanding of MCOs.

I would only recommend to those extremely interested in Managed Care Organizations.

a great primer

An honest book that does what it sets out to do-give an overview of the subject. Although texts such as this suffer from the ravages of time on relevance it is still preferable to the inefficiency of trying to educate yourself about these subjects on the internet.
