Very Informative

This is a great book and also includes a student companion, which is like a workbook or note taker. The student companion has helped me to understand the chapters.

I was extremely impressed by the product and the service. Better World Books kept me in the loop with emails and sent the product timely. It was in excellent condition - much better than expected. I was very pleased, and will definitely order from them in the future.
good intro to the subject of health care
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This was a good intro to the US 'heath care' system. It's written for the general public, so reading was easy. This book seemed a little biased, but made some great points especially when highlighting the flaws in the US health care system.
Better than expected

A concise and accessible introduction to available US health care
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Department of Health Policy Management Professor Leiyu Shi and School of Public and Environmental Affairs Associate Professor Douglas Singh present Essentials of the US Health Care System, a concise and accessible introduction to available US health care. Written as a textbook especially for students considering a profession in the field, yet also accessible to lay readers, Essentials of the US Health Care System includes basic information concerning the effects of modern medical technology, the roles of different providers and professionals in US health care, managed care and health networks, long-term care services, and much more. Graphs, charts, and black-and- white photographs round out this excellent primer of basic terms and concepts; each section features a neatly summarized conclusion and a list of references for more information. Also very highly recommended is the author's previous textbook, Delivering Health Care In America: A Systems Approach.
