Dr. Bruce Cree Speaks About Relationship Between Managed Care Organizations and Subspecialists

Dr. Bruce Cree, Assistant Professor of Clinical Neurology, Department of Neurology, University of California San Francisco, speaks to why he believes managed care organizations should provide an additional level of deference to the opinions of subspecialists over primary care physicians.
