Managed care. The term managed care or managed healthcare is used in the United States to describe a group of activities ostensibly intended to reduce the cost of providing health care while improving the quality of that care (managed care techniques).
The growth of managed care in the U.S. was spurred by the enactment of the Health Maintenance Organization Act of 1973. While managed care techniques were pioneered by health maintenance organizations, they are now used by a variety of private health benefit programs. Managed care is now nearly ubiquitous in the U.S, but has attracted controversy because it has had mixed results in its overall goal of controlling medical costs.
