Book Description

April 23, 2008 019537150X 978-0195371505 1
This book provides a multi-disciplinary framework for developing and analysing health sector reforms, based on the authors' extensive international experience. It offers practical guidance, and stresses the need to take account of each country's economic, administrative, and political circumstances. The authors explain how to design effective government interventions in five areas - financing, payment, organization, regulation, and behaviour - to improve the performance and equity of health systems around the world.

Editorial Reviews

Review


"This is a book that was developed as a result of an unmet need for an alternative healthcare reform system. It represents the hard work and successful collaboration of noted academicians, institutions, and international groups. This is an important contribution to the existing body of literature on global development in healthcare."--Doody's Health Review

This book was an excellent read, but I was rather disappointed in the way it was written. It reads very much like a textbook, so the flow isn't there as much. However, it is packed full of useful ideas and information. I am not disappointed that I purchased this book.

Health Reform October 3, 2010

The book is good . . . gave me a bird's eye view of the US Health system. I was skeptical when my professor recommended it but now I am glad he did.
