One effect of managed care is that pediatric
healthcare delivery has shifted dramatically
from the
acute care setting to the ambulatory setting.
The number of hospital beds being used has
decreased as more care is provided in
outpatient and home settings. The number of
uninsured
children in the United States continues to
grow. One of the biggest changes in
healthcare has
been the growth of managed care.
