The papers included in this volume may be categorized loosely into
four general thematic sections: theoretical perspectives on the
field of health care management; the role and impact of managed
care; evolution of the health professions; enhancing health care
organizational performance. The three papers in the first general
section deal with a range of theoretical issues related to health
care management, from complexity science to a theoretical
comparison of integrated networks against systems, to how health
care management researchers think about the research process. The
three papers in the second section address the significant
challenges faced by health care managers as they attempt to respond
to the increasing impact of managed care. The third section's three
papers look at the evolving roles of the health professions,
including those of physicians as clinicians and as executives. The
four papers in the final section focus on various approaches, from
total quality management to use of work groups and transformational
leadership, to enhancing health care organizational performance.
