Yes, says the author, who explains how tax-free medical savings accounts and high-deductible insurance policies can help cut costs and allow patients and physicians to make their own decisions on minor medical problems. He also examines what he sees as the restrictions of managed care and discusses how the too liberal use of advanced technology can lead to "silent rationing."
