Using this text for a distance learning course. Seems to provide a good introduction to the subjects of Health Services. Written on a level I can understand, not being a medical person, but a hospital support person.
Excellent introductory overview to the US health system.

Williams and Torrens have developed one of the best introductory texts on the US health system. The book has clear learning objectives, useful references, and helpful diagrams. The American health system is farily and accurately described, warts and all.
