The book examines key issues of health services delivery (insurance, rationing of care, allocation of resources, and cost-containment) and the health care industry (corruption, kickbacks, and conflicts of interest) in both developing and developed countries. The book also considers cross-border issues that arise from the movement of patients and providers across national boundaries, such as treatment of undocumented aliens, medical tourism, and the "brain drain" of health care personnel from developing countries"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aMedical care 606 $aMedical ethics 615 0$aMedical care. 615 0$aMedical ethics. 676 $a174.2 686 $a490.15$2njb/09 686 $a174.2$2njb/09 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910819744803321 996 $aEthics in health services and policy$94214263 997 $aUNINA
