LuftCambridge, Mass. Harvard University Press20081 online resource (337 p.) Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph0-674-03210-1 Includes bibliographical references and index.Build on what you've got, but recognize real-world constraints -- Overview of a restructured health care system -- Covering the cost of care: rethinking health insurance -- Organizing care and paying providers -- Choices: harnessing data to inform decisions -- Financing SecureChoice -- Malpractice, pharmaceuticals, medical education, and prevention -- How SecureChoice would work for patients and physicians -- Getting there: policy choices, implementation, and transition.Proposals to reform the health care system typically focus on either increasing private insurance or expanding government-sponsored plans. Guaranteeing that everyone is insured, however, does not create a system with the quality of care patients want, the flexibility clinicians need, and the internal dynamics to continually improve the value of health care. Luft presents a comprehensive new proposal, SecureChoice, which does all that while providing affordable health insurance for every American.Health care reformUnited StatesMedical policyUnited StatesHealth planningUnited StatesHealth insuranceUnited StatesHealth care reformMedical policyHealth planningHealth insurance362.1/04250973Luft Harold S1494675MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778172503321Total cure3718362UNINA
