Overview

Written by well-respected health and public policy expert, this book is a comprehensive primer on the under-appreciated role of public health policy in the United States' medical care industry. The book offers students: - an introduction to the fundamentals of health policy, with comparative perspectives from other countries; - analysis of major health care programmes, including Medicare, Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act, and regulatory programmes; - reflections on issues around access, quality, cost, and the ethics of provision. By drawing comparisons between the US and other countries, it deepens our understanding of health policy in the US, where it is headed next, and what it might learn from other systems.
