Understand how the healthcare system works – and how you can succeed in it A Doody's Core Title for 2019! The Seventh Edition of Understanding Health Policy: A Clinical Approach remains the most trusted and comprehensive guide to healthcare available and provides everything you need to build a solid foundation on the field’s most critical issues. This concise and engaging textbook clearly explains the all major aspects of healthcare, including finance, organization, and reimbursement. It will help you develop a clearer, more systematic way of thinking about health care in the United States, its problems, and the alternatives for managing and solving these problems. The book features a unique approach, using clinical vignettes to highlight key policy issues, clarify difficult concepts, and demonstrate how they apply to real-world situations, affecting both patients and professionals alike. Expert practitioners in both the public and private healthcare sectors, the authors cover the entire scope of our healthcare system. They carefully weave key principles, descriptions, and concrete examples into chapters that make important health policy issues interesting and understandable. Understanding Health Policy makes otherwise difficult concepts easy to understand―so you can make better decisions, improve outcomes, and enact positive change on a daily basis.

It goes through all different models of healthcare and explains it with examples of patient cases. It also explains the differences between the US system and Germany, Japan, UK, and Canada. I now feel confident in my knowledge of exactly how different types of insurance models work... I am very happy I had to read this and this is one of the few books that I feel teach you a ton in the lightest way possible. Review: Great book, as far as textbooks go. - This is a very interesting book. I had to read the whole thing for a graduate school course (nursing). It is written in a very straight forward, readable style and explains things very well. It addresses many aspects of health care issues in the U.S. and also has a chapter comparing our system with those of a few other countries with similar issue and economies. Price was reasonable for a textbook. You will come away from reading this book supporting universal health care! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,288,236 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #326 in Health Policy (Books) #802 in Public Health (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 207 Reviews | ## Images ![Understanding Health Policy: A Clinical Approach, Seventh Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71zJLoBdihL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thrilled! *by R***R on July 9, 2019* I got this book because it was required for class.
