This book was released on 2008-12-03 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a local health economics expert, each of the eight chapters in this timely handbook and ready reference describes the national healthcare system of a different industrialized country. In each case, the 4-5 specific policies with the highest impact on that respective country over the past 20-30 years are identified. In addition, the economic characteristics of each policy are described and, where possible, its success evaluated, discussing the current policy agenda. A final chapter summarizes and synthesizes the major points of the analysis. While the main focus is on economics, this guide is written in non-technical language for an audience of health policy decision makers or students of health policy, making it an invaluable contribution to the current debate surrounding the control of rising healthcare-related costs in the developed world.

Healthcare accounts for nearly a fifth of the U.S. economy. Everyone agrees that the current system is broken and in desperate need of repair.

Download or read book The Healthcare Imperative written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-01-17 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States has the highest per capita spending on health care of any industrialized nation but continually lags behind other nations in health care outcomes including life expectancy and infant mortality. National health expenditures are projected to exceed $2.5 trillion in 2009. Given healthcare's direct impact on the economy, there is a critical need to control health care spending. According to The Health Imperative: Lowering Costs and Improving Outcomes, the costs of health care have strained the federal budget, and negatively affected state governments, the private sector and individuals. Healthcare expenditures have restricted the ability of state and local governments to fund other priorities and have contributed to slowing growth in wages and jobs in the private sector. Moreover, the number of uninsured has risen from 45.7 million in 2007 to 46.3 million in 2008. The Health Imperative: Lowering Costs and Improving Outcomes identifies a number of factors driving expenditure growth including scientific uncertainty, perverse economic and practice incentives, system fragmentation, lack of patient involvement, and under-investment in population health. Experts discussed key levers for catalyzing transformation of the delivery system. A few included streamlined health insurance regulation, administrative simplification and clarification and quality and consistency in treatment. The book is an excellent guide for policymakers at all levels of government, as well as private sector healthcare workers.

Download or read book Patient-centered Healthcare Consumerism written by Ronald E. Bachman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thrust of this book is how to benefit from the rise of Patient-Centered Healthcare Consumerism and the consumerism megatrends underway. From a pure financing perspective, there are three ways to pay for healthcare: (1) premiums, (2) savings, or (3) taxes. Traditional insurance relies on premiums. Government programs like Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act (ACA) rely on tax subsidies. PCHC combines the best of all three. It can minimize premiums, maximize savings, and provide consumers with valued tax advantages. Patient Centered Healthcare Consumerism brings together two key dimensions of healthcare regulatory and market reforms. "Healthcare Consumerism" by itself could be interpreted with a focus on the purchasing of health and healthcare products. "Patient-centered" by itself could be interpreted to focus on the use of the care delivery system. If you are an Individual - this book is for you, the healthcare consumer. You will find answers to what you can do to optimize the value of your purchases. Whether you are seeking to understand your options under your employer's group plan or selecting individual coverage. This book will help you move beyond immediate health concerns to understanding how to live a long productive life. If you are a Consultant, Agent or Broker - this book will show you how to market, discuss, and sell flexible PCHC designs that will lower premiums (and future premium increases), increase coverage choices, add care convenience, and improve access to doctors, hospitals, and other medical providers. If you are a Human Resources executive - this book will illustrate how to develop a health and healthcare strategic plan unique to your organization. This book will assist you in learning whether or not your organization is ready for change and what other organizational changes will improve the health and healthcare costs of your employees. If you are a Benefit Manager, Wellness or Communications Director - we will define and explain the pros and cons of PCHC. We will show how benefits interact with the development of human capital. We will explain how work effects health and how health effects work. If you are a Solution Provider - you will see where your product fits into the rapidly evolving market of new technologies and services. You will better understand how to discuss your product/service in the language of your prospects and customers. You will see the spectrum of developing generations of PCHC and where you fit into the present and future of health and healthcare. If you are a Care Provider - you will understand how your services interact with savings options and insurance, plan design, and patient care. You will better grasp the possibilities and importance of patient involvement and engagement in wellness, well-being, treatment plans, and compliance. You will see how you can strengthen the patient-provider relationship to improve patient compliance with treatment plans. If you are an Attorney, Legal Advisor, or Compliance Officer - We will provide examples and an understanding of the need for your services at each of the four points of any reform (legislation, regulation, compliance, and litigation). If you are an elected official - this book will provide simplified insights into real market-based solutions. You will better understand how legislation can encourage or discourage free-market developments. You may be in a position to offer new legislation that will impact the evolution of consumerism and prevent the old saying, "Legislation tends to crowd out the future."

Book excerpt: Measuring the quality of intangible service products has become a great challenge for managers, administrators and policy makers in the health services industry. Patient satisfaction or dissatisfaction is a complicated phenomenon that is linked to patient expectations, patient rights, health status, personal characteristics as well as health system characteristics. However, patient satisfaction as an indicator of quality of healthcare has evolved as an outcome measure and patient satisfaction surveys are being increasingly identified to be established yardsticks to measure success of the service delivery system functional at hospitals.
