Book Synopsis The Health Care Safety Net in a Post-Reform World by : Sara Rosenbaum
Download or read book The Health Care Safety Net in a Post-Reform World written by Sara Rosenbaum and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-03 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Health Care Safety Net in a Post-Reform World examines how national health care reform will impact safety net programs that serve low-income and uninsured patients. The “safety net” refers to the collection of hospitals, clinics, and doctors who treat disadvantaged people, including those without insurance, regardless of their ability to pay. Despite comprehensive national health care reform, over twenty million people will remain uninsured. And many of those who obtain insurance from reform will continue to face shortages of providers in their communities willing or able to serve them. As the demand for care grows with expanded insurance, so will the pressure on an overstretched safety net. This book, with contributions from leading health care scholars, is the first comprehensive assessment of the safety net in over a decade. Rather than view health insurance and the health care safety net as alternatives to each other, it examines their potential to be complementary aspects of a broader effort to achieve equity and quality in health care access. It also considers whether the safety net can be improved and strengthened to a level that can provide truly universal access, both through expanded insurance and the creation of a well-integrated and reasonably supported network of direct health care access for the uninsured. Seeing safety net institutions as key components of post-health care reform in the United States—as opposed to stop-gap measures or as part of the problem—is a bold idea. And as presented in this volume, it is an idea whose time has come.

Book Synopsis Evidence-Based Adjunctive Treatments by : William O'Donohue
Download or read book Evidence-Based Adjunctive Treatments written by William O'Donohue and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-04-28 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adjunctive treatments, in which patients are provided additional modalities that can assist in their behavior change or the maintenance of their behavior change (i.e. telehealth, psychoeducation, consumer-driven treatment planning), have a useful role in addressing problems that can't be solved by face-to-face meetings. The adjunctive therapies covered in this book are all based on improving patient’s self management of their problems or the factors that exacerbate their problems. The book is broadly organized into two sections. The first gives a broad overview of the major adjunctive modalities and the second concentrates on a systematic description of their role in the treatment of a number of special populations while providing practical suggestions for the timing and coordination for the use of the adjunctive therapies discussed in the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical geography is a fascinating area of rapidly evolving study that aims to analyse and improve worldwide health issues based on the geographical factors which have an impact on them.

Chapters represent a wide range of industries, ranging from private/public universities to private companies to non-profit foundations.

In addition to compiling current theories and practices related to medical geography, this volume also features commentaries from two pre-eminent geography librarians, sharing their perspectives on this emerging field and how map and geographic information librarians can engage in health-related research through their profession. This book was originally published as two special issues of the Journal of Map & Geography Libraries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SeSSion The health care safety net in the United States is a patchwork of provid- ers, financing, and programs that generally serve people outside of the medical mainstream, namely those without stable health care coverage. [...] Department of Health and Human Services lacks sufficient tools to track and monitor the condition and effectiveness of the health care safety net, making educated policymaking a challenge. [...] Much of the avail- able information regarding the status and adequacy of the safety net is anecdotal or limited to a single community or state. [...] However, most safety net providers are struggling against rising demand, and their ability to meet the health care needs of the impov- erished and disadvantaged is seriously challenged: Many communities are experiencing crowded emergency departments; hospitals are having dif- ficulty providing access to specialty care in their emergency departments; mental health and dental services are extremely. [...] key queStionS What strategies and circumstances enable safety net innovation and success? What is the state of the safety net in the 12 communities monitored by the HSC? What key changes have been seen in these service sys- tems across the ten years of the survey? How do changes in Medicaid policy at the federal level (for example, federal payment regulations) and at the state level (for example,.

Download or read book Patient Safety written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-12-20 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans should be able to count on receiving health care that is safe. To achieve this, a new health care delivery system is needed â€" a system that both prevents errors from occurring, and learns from them when they do occur. The development of such a system requires a commitment by all stakeholders to a culture of safety and to the development of improved information systems for the delivery of health care. This national health information infrastructure is needed to provide immediate access to complete patient information and decision-support tools for clinicians and their patients. In addition, this infrastructure must capture patient safety information as a by-product of care and use this information to design even safer delivery systems. Health data standards are both a critical and time-sensitive building block of the national health information infrastructure. Building on the Institute of Medicine reports To Err Is Human and Crossing the Quality Chasm, Patient Safety puts forward a road map for the development and adoption of key health care data standards to support both information exchange and the reporting and analysis of patient safety data.
