Aus dem Klappentext

The restructuring of the delivery of behavioral healthcare has raised profound ethical questions. How does a clinician balance the patient's right to confidentiality with society's need for regulating outcomes and treatment measurements? What should a provider do when benefits expire yet patients still require treatment? How does one respond to financial incentives to provide too little care, or too much? Gatekeeping, informed consent, utilization review?these and many other crucial issues are confronting mental health professionals in the new era of managed care.This imaginative book is a fictionalized account of clinician Dr. Evelyn Bloom and businessman Adam Wilder, who attempt to run a start-up managed behavioral healthcare company in a highly ethical manner.
