Z

Zero-Sum Budgeting - A "deficit neutral" budget process in which new expenditures are paid through cuts in existing programs or increases in revenue. The end result is the same bottom line and no increase in the deficit (if governmental) or debt (if referring to private or public corporation or company).

(We are sorry, but, we do not have any other terms in the glossary, at present, which begin with the letter "Z". If you know of any that you think should be included, please send a message with the word or words and their definitions to our webmaster. Please use the alphabet index above to continue searching for managed healthcare terms that begin with other letters, or, use the web index.)

"If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost;  that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them." (Henry David Thoreau)
