Cost containment in eye care.
Year: 2001
Type: article
Abstract: Voluntary eye hospitals committed to serving the community must understand the reality of increasing costs due to inflation, advancements in medical technology and changing expectations of staff and patients. However, these costs are often not matched by the patients' paying capacity. While increasing income, through increased user fees or donations are financial options which will be considered, this article will focus on cost containment.
