Remaking health care in America

Description

Remaking Health Care in America presents the results of a comprehensive four-year study of the response to growing managed care and cost containment pressures among eleven health care systems. The book examines the success and failures of the current system and provides case study examples, practical suggestions, and recommendations for developing and implementing a more integrated, cost-effective delivery system. Written by the country's foremost authority on health services management and a team of experts, the book challenges the nation to create an environment that will support the evolution of our health care system to provide a more integrated communitywide approach that focuses on alliances, linkages, and partnerships with public health and social service agencies. To accomplish the transformation to an effective community health care management system, the authors present a conceptual framework that shows how to promote the integration of finance, human resources, strategic planning, total quality management, and information systems.
