Product Description

Essentials of Health Policy and Law explores essential domestic health law and policy issues in three unique ways. First, it emphasizes how the key legal and policy issues at the heart of public health interact with those of the health care financing and delivery systems. For example, it is nearly impossible to overstate the impact that this country.s predominantly employer-based, private health insurance system has on the overall public.s health.namely, a population of some 43 million uninsured. Second, it describes and discusses public health law and policy issues through the lenses of individual, government, professional, and marketplace autonomy and responsibility. Finally, the text unifies the content of health law and policy with the skills needed to analyze this content.
