In the 1990s, the newly elected statehood party reinvented the healthcare system using a managed care model in Puerto Rico. In a period of two years, the government sold off public hospitals, closed local health centers and enrolled eligible beneficiaries with private insurance companies. The reformers sought to modernize the practices of providers, produce healthier and more health savvy Puerto Ricans, and rationalize health care delivery through corporate management techniques. To study neoliberal health reforms ethnographically, this research combines several sites of inquiry. The investigation was conducted over a period of three years and includes life history interviews with patients, physicians, and government officials as well as participant observation at a managed care organization. These distinct research sites enable a complex portrayal of how privatization reshaped health and healthcare in Puerto Rico.
