Product Description
Health care is America's most talked about and controversial issue at the end of the 20th century. No domestic problem has engaged so many persons, from thousands without medical insurance to individuals fed up with real or imagined mistreatment in managed care. Health Care Policy and Politics A to Z brings clarity and understanding to one of the most contentious and important public policy issues in America.What is managed care and why is it so controversial? What are the roots of the abortion controversy? How do Medicare and Medicaid work, and what is the difference between them? These and hundreds of other questions, terms, and concepts -- almost 300 in all -- are discussed in layman's language by Julie Rovner, a Washington-based reporter specializing in health care issues for many years.
