Annotation	The promise of a new, more efficient, accountable and more valuable healthcare system is incorporated in some of the managed care organisations which will soon provide healthcare coverage for most Americans. Without strong and informed consumer advocacy, that promise may never be realized. Consumer advocates must take up the challenge to engage health plans on their own terms, if the quest for a better healthcare system is to be fulfilled.
