Groping For Autonomy: The Federal Government And American Hospitals, Robert B. Hackey Sep 1999

Groping For Autonomy: The Federal Government And American Hospitals, Robert B. Hackey

Health Sciences Faculty Publications

This article chronicles the slow but steady emergence of countervailing power in the hospital industry since mid-century. The transformation of American health care policymaking reflects the federal government's growing fiscal obligations as the single largest purchaser of health care. As John Kenneth Galbraith [1956,113] notes, "Power on one side of a market creates both the need for, and the prospect of reward to, the exercise of countervailing power from the other side."

What Can An Honest Officer Do?, T N Seshan

IIMB Management Review

Much is being said today about good governance when it is undoubtedly a scarce commodity all over the country. Instead of wondering whether to change to a presidential form of government, or revamping the entire system, T N Seshan suggests a good dose of honesty and adherence to the letter of the law. Whatever is best administrated is best, he maintains, and it is possible for an honest officer to function and to govern properly without changing the rules, if he establishes a reputation for uncompromising honesty.
