"This is a one-of-a-kind, in-depth analysis of the inherent challenges of implementing a healthcare reform system in countries around the world...This is an important contribution to the existing body of literature on global development in healthcare." - Lena Lee-Watson, University of Phoenix, Doody's Notes

 

"This is a book that was developed as a result of an unmet need for an alternative healthcare reform system. It represents the hard work and successful collaboration of noted academicians, institutions, and international groups." -- Doody's Health Review

 

This book provides a multi-disciplinary framework for developing and analyzing health sector reforms, based on the authors' extensive international experience. It offers practical guidance, and stresses the need to take account of each country's economic, administrative, and political circumstances. The authors explain how to design effective government interventions in five areas - financing, payment, organization, regulation, and behavior - to improve the performance and equity of health systems around the world.
