Health Care Politics, Policy And Services A Social Justice Analysis

' Who has a right to health care? ? How can the idea of Social Justice inform health care? ? What are the roles of government and personal responsibility toward providing health care? ? Can we reform the U.S. health care system? These issues are often debated in health care policy or public health courses, yet without the proper knowledge of the true structure of the U.S. health care system or the various social justice models that can inform change. According to the President's New Freedom Commission, our social and public health workers are ill-prepared to address the issues faced in direct healthcare practice, precisely because they are under informed in these areas. In this innovative text, accessible to those in health care policy, social work, public policy, nursing, or public administration, the author provides all the tools necessary to launch a successful attack on what most see as an inadequate health care policy.Almgren, Gunnar is the author of 'Health Care Politics, Policy And Services A Social Justice Analysis', published 2006 under ISBN 9780826102362 and ISBN 0826102360.
