Changing the U.S. Health Care System by Ronald M Andersen
The third edition of Changing the U.S. Health Care System is a thoroughly revised and updated compendium of the most current thought on three key components of health care policy-improving access, ensuring quality, and controlling costs. Written by a panel of health care policy experts, this third edition highlights the most recent research relevant to health policy and management issues. New chapters address topics such as the disparities in health and in health care, information systems, and performance in the area of nursing. Revisions to chapters from the previous edition emphasize the most recent developments in the field.
"The book is sobering and pulls no punches as it describes the myriad strengths and weaknesses on both policy and health care.." (PsycCritiques, 09/19/2007)
