Description

Gain a deep understanding of the changing landscape of public healthcare with Deconstructing the Welfare State: Managing Healthcare in the Age of Reform. This Routledge publication examines the daily professional lives of middle managers within the UK's National Health Service (NHS). As the structure of publicly-funded healthcare faces radical change and disruption, this book provides an essential look at how management functions during periods of intense reform. Readers will find an empirical critique of the global shift toward healthcare models based on HMO-type providers, such as Kaiser Permanente and United Health. While these models are recognized internationally, the text explores the financial and ethical questions surrounding them. This book is a valuable resource for those studying organizational theory, healthcare management, and the evolution of the welfare state. It offers a direct look at the realities of working within a system undergoing significant structural transformation.
