Description

Explore the complex relationship between healthcare markets and consumer choice with this essential text from Edward Elgar Publishing. Written by Alain Enthoven, this book examines the development of managed competition within alternative healthcare financing and delivery systems. It provides a detailed look at how to improve quality while working to reduce the overall cost of medical care. This work offers a comparative perspective by looking at how these economic ideas function across different global models. You will find analysis on the application of these concepts within the American employment-based insurance model, the British National Health Service, and the healthcare systems in the Netherlands. The text also discusses the necessity of integrated, comprehensive care systems. As a unique anthology, this book traces the development of important healthcare theories. It is an ideal resource for students, researchers, and professionals in economics and healthcare management who want to understand the mechanics of market-based healthcare solutions and the evolution of consumer-driven medical systems.
