TOPIC: Should health services be competitive?

One of your journal readings this week is a debate on the merits of competition for patients for health services.

Through your reading and research, show me why you agree or disagree with the notion that health services should surrender to the economic forces of the market system. Should health services be exempt from the pressures of competition, e.g. more local, state or federal regulation? (Why do you agree or disagree)

Remember to think like a Hospital Administrator / Healthcare Marketing Director (Not a Patient!). Your existence as an administrator depends on having patients, paying salaries, giving raises, meeting standards etc!

Remember to bring in the appropriate references (facts without references are just opinions) Remember this is academic thinking!
