| Abstract: | The Resource Management Initiative (RMI) is a central ingredient in plans to instill market-based relationships in health care and medicine. However, these plans have not benefited from any adequate assessment of "resource management". The paper demonstrates how earlier experience with resource management provides little guidance as to how it might be made to work. While resource management implies that measures of cost and activity were to be related to each other, its purposes are confused and confusing. |
