What Makes a Good Healthcare System?
What Makes a Good Healthcare System?: comparisons, values, drivers
Alan Gillies,
Publisher: Radcliffe Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1857759214   DDC: 353   Edition: Paperback; 2003-01-01

Summary:

What Makes a Good Health Care System? examines the various
assumptions that underpin the different views of what makes a good
health care system. The national systems in the UK, Australia and
Canada are thoroughly examined. Each country has a different view of
what a good health care system is trying to achieve, and the book
elucidates these by highlighting key policy documents and comments
from key stakeholders. Case studies emphasise the diverse needs and
expectations of individuals, examining and comparing concepts of
health needs, quality as a measure of 'good-ness' and the various
ideas on Gold Standards. This book will be valuable reading for all
healthcare managers and clinicians with management responsibilities,
as well as policy makers and shapers and all those with a general
interest in health.
