Full Description
"Health Economics" begins by looking at simple models of supply and demand within healthcare, before moving on to techniques of cost-benefit analysis; it then compares differing healthcare systems around the world. With an array of case studies based on systems from around the world, the book bridges the divide between the insurance-based system employed in the United States and the publicly funded options more common in Europe and Canada.
