Editorial Reviews: Product Description This review of the U.S. health system offers both an historical and current perspective. Readers will learn about the origins of our health system, the forces that have influenced its change, and how the system has responded to those forces of change to become what it is today. Key topics include costs, financing and access to health care, as well as the various different systems for delivering health care. Reform efforts are discussed and a new chapter covers information technology in health care. Web-based resources are referenced for additional research and information.
