Abstract:
:As the growth of healthcare continues to outpace inflation, health policy makers are increasingly concerned with cost containment. This article summarizes studies of the cost-benefit of patient education studies in managed care and other settings, including comprehensive approaches to healthcare delivery that emphasize education. On the average, for every dollar invested in patient education, $3-4 were saved. The article concludes with recommendations for healthcare policy makers and administrators.
