Book Synopsis Politics, Propaganda and Public Opinion: the Influence of Race and Class on the 1993 - 1994 Health Care Reform Debate by : Fard Johnson
Download or read book Politics, Propaganda and Public Opinion: the Influence of Race and Class on the 1993 - 1994 Health Care Reform Debate written by Fard Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2005-12 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1993, President Bill Clinton presented his Health Security Act to the US Congress. The legislation was intended to reform the nation's health care system while mandating the provision of health insurance to all Americans. A number of factors influenced the genesis and demise of the Act between 1993 and 1994, including presidential politics, opposition from powerful interest groups and waning public support for the legislation. This thesis investigates whether and how race and class influenced debate over Clinton's health care reform proposal. Evidence is presented that race and class affected Clinton's decision to champion healthcare reform, lent credibility to health insurance industry advertisements opposing the president's legislation and influenced public opinion on government-financed health care, and by extension health care reform. These findings indicate that race and class may have played a role in the evolution and resolution of the 1993 to 1994 health care reform debate.

This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the role of public opinion in President Clinton's 1993–94 proposal for comprehensive national health insurance. The dissertation challenges the dominant interpretation of the 1993–4 health care debate: that the public wanted universal health care, Clinton attempted to deliver it to them, but failed because of a flawed political process. Different analysts see different flaws, but most agree that the health care debate was indicative of an â€unhealthy†political process, where special interests dominated a debate marred by misinformation and big money. Some go so far as to conclude that universal health care is â€terminally ill,†forever doomed by an institutional structure that fragments power, allowing well-organized, well-financed special interest groups to easily dominate the political playing field. Using public opinion and archival data, the central findings include: (1) The public did not ever strongly support the Clinton Plan. A majority initially supported the Clinton plan, but felt the plan would affect them adversely; (2) Public support of the Clinton Plan would have dissipated, even without the unprecedented campaign waged against it by business interests; (3) Elected officials listened to the public. Public opinion affected the health care debate in important ways. Clinton eschewed the so-called â€single payer†approach to health care, fearing adverse public reaction. Second, anticipating hostile public opinion, Democrats in the House of Representatives froze their chamber's consideration of the health care reform until the Senate spoke on controversial aspects of the plan. And public opinion directly affected senators' decisions to support or oppose health reform. In particular, Senate Republicans sought to kill health reform when the polls turned against the Clinton Plan. The debate over health reform, while imperfect in many ways, was still indicative of healthy political process. The Clinton Plan forced a debate about the role of government in American society. Here, as in many cases, the public showed both support for the ends of the government involvement but discomfort in granting the government broad new powers. The public understood the broad choices the Clinton Plan presented and rejected it. Moreover, that the public significantly influenced public policy.

Book Synopsis Care Without Coverage by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Care Without Coverage written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-06-20 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Americans believe that people who lack health insurance somehow get the care they really need. Care Without Coverage examines the real consequences for adults who lack health insurance. The study presents findings in the areas of prevention and screening, cancer, chronic illness, hospital-based care, and general health status. The committee looked at the consequences of being uninsured for people suffering from cancer, diabetes, HIV infection and AIDS, heart and kidney disease, mental illness, traumatic injuries, and heart attacks. It focused on the roughly 30 million-one in seven-working-age Americans without health insurance. This group does not include the population over 65 that is covered by Medicare or the nearly 10 million children who are uninsured in this country. The main findings of the report are that working-age Americans without health insurance are more likely to receive too little medical care and receive it too late; be sicker and die sooner; and receive poorer care when they are in the hospital, even for acute situations like a motor vehicle crash.
Book Synopsis Politics, Power and Policy Making by : Mark E. Rushefsky
Download or read book Politics, Power and Policy Making written by Mark E. Rushefsky and published by M.E. Sharpe. This book was released on 1998-03-24 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracking the issue of healthcare reform through the tumultuous 1990s, Politics, Power, and Policy Making opens a window on the changing dynamics of American politics from the Clinton inauguration in January 1993 through the Republican revolution of 1995 and the 1996 elections. The book brings the legislative process to life by following a single controversial issue through the system, effectively linking public policy studies with the study of American political institutions. In the classroom, this book transcends the limitations of a bill becomes a law, affording students a more complex perspective on --the domestic policy-making process in action --power politics and the role of interest groups, the media, and public opinion --the impact of elections and the apparent shift of policy initiative from the executive to congress in November 1994 --the dynamics of federalism and the devolution revolution: how real is it? --the persistence of divided government and gridlock: is this what Americans really want?

Book Synopsis Coverage Matters by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book Coverage Matters written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-10-27 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roughly 40 million Americans have no health insurance, private or public, and the number has grown steadily over the past 25 years. Who are these children, women, and men, and why do they lack coverage for essential health care services? How does the system of insurance coverage in the U.S. operate, and where does it fail? The first of six Institute of Medicine reports that will examine in detail the consequences of having a large uninsured population, Coverage Matters: Insurance and Health Care, explores the myths and realities of who is uninsured, identifies social, economic, and policy factors that contribute to the situation, and describes the likelihood faced by members of various population groups of being uninsured. It serves as a guide to a broad range of issues related to the lack of insurance coverage in America and provides background data of use to policy makers and health services researchers.

Book Synopsis Talk of Power, Power of Talk by : Michael W. Shelton
Download or read book Talk of Power, Power of Talk written by Michael W. Shelton and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2000-04-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shelton confirms the power of talk in the specific case of the 1994 debate on comprehensive health care reform and beyond. He provides a context rich with detail concerning health care and health care reform in America and a social scientific examination of specific discourse factors that includes narratives, naming, and medical metaphors. Shelton's assessment of the debate reveals that opposition discourse was much more directly impacted and broader in scope. This is followed by a rhetorical analysis that extends the genre of crisis rhetoric. Shelton's rhetorical analysis reveals that the virtual crisis of big government both subsumed and overwhelmed the actual health care crisis. Such an assessment—including an ethical analysis of the 1994 floor debate and detailed consideration of the social existence of hatred for government—produces a host of research and scholarly implications. A thoughtful analysis that will be of value to scholars and researchers in political communication and public policy.

Download or read book Remedy and Reaction written by Paul Starr and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2013-06-04 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In no other country has health care served as such a volatile flashpoint of ideological conflict. America has endured a century of rancorous debate on health insurance, and despite the passage of legislation in 2010, the battle is not yet over. This book is a history of how and why the United States became so stubbornly different in health care, presented by an expert with unsurpassed knowledge of the issues. Tracing health-care reform from its beginnings to its current uncertain prospects, Paul Starr argues that the United States ensnared itself in a trap through policies that satisfied enough of the public and so enriched the health-care industry as to make the system difficult to change. He reveals the inside story of the rise and fall of the Clinton health plan in the early 1990sùand of the Gingrich counterrevolution that followed. And he explains the curious tale of how Mitt RomneyÆs reforms in Massachusetts became a model for Democrats and then follows both the passage of those reforms under Obama and the explosive reaction they elicited from conservatives. Writing concisely and with an even hand, the author offers exactly what is needed as the debate continuesùa penetrating account of how health care became such treacherous terrain in American politics.
