As the managed care approach to provision of services has rapidly expanded, much of the criticism of the approach has been couched in ethical and value-based arguments. This article examines the managed care conflicts and dilemmas for professionals through the lens of the core values of the social work profession and a conceptual model for analyzing the decision-making situation. Suggestions for needed changes in the managed care framework that address ethical issues are included. Examples from current social work practitioners are included to illustrate these conceptual issues
