Description and Table of Contents

Description

This is a thorough review of the economics of providing health care. It covers the different institutional forms of health care delivery and financing, and provides an assessment of the costs and benefits associated with different structures. The book is of particular interest given current changes to the health service in the USA and the UK. The contributors present the issues within the context of historical events and international considerations.
