Managed health care systems are focusing their attention
on three key functions--reducing costs, improving health outcomes,
and enhancing patient satisfaction--and increasingly will value
and reward clinicians who can contribute to these functions. Because
attention to health promotion and disease prevention can contribute
greatly to all three functions, it will be essential for clinicians
to be skilled at helping patients maximize their health and prevent
illness.
