Comparative Health Policy provides a broad ranging introduction to the funding, provision and governance of a wide array of health systems, systematically comparing Australia, Britain, Germany, Japan, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Sweden, Singapore, Taiwan and the USA. The 5th edition of this highly-regarded text includes new coverage of low- and middle-income countries and of the health workforce, as well as acute care, primary care, long-term and home care and public health services. It analyses the impact of variation in the relative emphasis on the goals of equity, quality and efficiency on priority setting and service provision, and assesses what lessons can be learned about the consequences of various public/private mixes, policy, and funding frameworks.
Comprehensive and accessibly written, this text will make for the perfect introduction for students of comparative and global health policy.
