Band-Aid Treatment

    0.01 sec.
Band-Aid Treatment
Informal; a remedy for the appearance of a problem rather than a solution to the problem itself. For example, if a company is having cash flow problems, it may borrow, rather than take any concrete steps to increase collections or sales. While band-aid treatments may be inevitable in the short term, they generally do not resolve any problems and may ultimately make matters worse.
