It begins with an introduction that provides a broad outline of the motivation and background for the need of understanding access for the healthcare system. The book moves on to characterize healthcare access within a classical multidimensional framework consisting of five dimensions, affordability, accessibility, availability, accommodation and acceptability. It then introduces the concepts of systematic disparities, reviews measures for systematic disparities, and presents a statistical framework for making inference on disparities with application to disparities in access. The book also introduces the concept of health outcomes in the context of prevention and chronic disease management. Final chapters describe the concepts of policy and network interventions and different data sources and structures with various inferential objectives. Health policy in the United States and other countries has embarked on substantive transformation towards improving access to healthcare. The discourse around the topic of healthcare access has brought many innovations in healthcare delivery with enormous opportunities for improvements in the health and wellbeing of the society. However, there is much to be learned about how on-going transformations in healthcare delivery and policy will impact the system in terms of addressing health disparities, improving health outcomes and providing high quality, affordable healthcare for everyone with limited resources"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aStevens Institute series on complex systems and enterprises. 606 $aHealth services accessibility 606 $aHealth Services Accessibility$3(DNLM)D006297 606 $aSocioeconomic Factors$3(DNLM)D012959 606 $aHealthcare Disparities$3(DNLM)D054625 606 $aOutcome and Process Assessment, Health Care$3(DNLM)D010043 607 $aUnited States 615 0$aHealth services accessibility. 615 12$aHealth Services Accessibility. 615 22$aSocioeconomic Factors. 615 22$aHealthcare Disparities. 615 22$aOutcome and Process Assessment, Health Care. 676 $a362.1 700 $aSerban$b Nicoleta$f1975-$01219021 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910555160003321 996 $aHealthcare system access$92818916 997 $aUNINA
