RWJF Anthology

Editors' Introduction

In this Introduction to the Anthology, editors Stephen L. Isaacs and James R. Knickman discuss the Foundation's challenges as market forces increasingly dictate the way in which health services are delivered; government can no longer be counted on to provide services for its neediest citizens; and an aging population, with its attendant chronic conditions, threatens to strain a health care system attuned to treating acute illnesses.
