The editors, leading experts in the field, have brought together a group of distinguished scholars to explore the ambitions and realities of health care regulation, financing, and delivery across countries. These wide-ranging essays cover policy debates and reforms in Canada, Germany, Holland, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as separate treatments of some of the most prominent issues confronting policy makers. These include primary care, hospital care, long-term care, pharmaceutical policy, and private health insurance. The authors are attentive throughout to the ways in which cross-national, comparative research may inform national policy debates not only under the Obama administration but across the world. 606 $aHealth care reform$zDeveloped countries 606 $aMedical policy$zDeveloped countries 606 $aSocial medicine$zDeveloped countries 615 0$aHealth care reform 615 0$aMedical policy 615 0$aSocial medicine 676 $a362.1 700 $aMarmor$b Theodore R.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0320979 701 $aMarmor$b Theodore R$0320979 701 $aFreeman$b Richard$c(Professor of Social Science and Public Policy)$01550865 701 $aOkma$b Kieke G.
