This raises a number of difficult questions for policy makers and practitioners as they struggle to interpret both 'hard' and 'soft' laws at EU and Member State level and to reconcile tensions between economic and social imperatives in health care. The book addresses these complex questions by combining analysis of the underlying issues with carefully chosen case studies that illustrate how broader principles are played out in practice. Each chapter addresses a topical area in which there is considerable debate and potential uncertainty. The book thus offers a comprehensive discussion of a number of current and emerging governance issues in EU health policy, including regulatory, legal, 'new governance' and policy-making dynamics, and the application of the legal framework in these areas. 410 0$aCambridge health economics, policy, and management series. 606 $aMedical policy$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aMedical laws and legislation$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aMedical care$xLaw and legislation$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aPublic health$zEuropean Union countries 615 0$aMedical policy 615 0$aMedical laws and legislation 615 0$aMedical care$xLaw and legislation 615 0$aPublic health 676 $a344.24/0321 702 $aMossialos$b Elias 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791120503321 996 $aHealth systems governance in Europe$93754588 997 $aUNINA
