Government Cuts and Rise of Managed Care Force a Medical Center To Shift Gears.
Walker, Paulette V.
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n16 pA30-A32 Dec 13 1996
The New York University Medical Center faces program cuts and major changes in research, teaching and patient care due to declining patient profits and federal grants. Patients are spending less time in hospitals, reducing teaching potential. However, reduced services also cause more student involvement in patient care. Data on funding and revenue for the medical center complex are included. (MSE)
