Guidebook to managed care and practice management terminology

the long version

"In Guidebook to Managed Care and Practice Management Terminology, you'll join the students, practitioners, clients, and patients who are currently bewildered by an array of acronyms, terms, and concepts associated with today's managed care-dominated practice environment. You'll learn to master the jargon, terminology, and concepts necessary for successful patient and practice advocacy. No longer will you be befuddled when someone mentions "capitation," "retrospective ratings," or "subrogation." Instead, you'll achieve rapid fluency with words like "attestation" and "sentinel diagnosis" as well as an entire lexicon of technical language that will help you stay in control of your health care situation, whether it's professional or personal."--BOOK JACKET.
