The Business of Health pdf
Description

There is ongoing controversy over how to improve the American health care system, expand coverage to the uninsured, and slow the growth of wasteful spending. Proponents of sweeping reforms argue that the fragmented nature of the health system is a weakness, and suggest that the more centralized systems used in other developed nations are models to be emulated. But many of those systems have important shortcomings, including unsustainable growth in spending and intolerable waiting times for essential health services. It is not at all clear whether the benefits of centralized control would offset the costs. The balance of evidence suggests that markets have more to offer than centralized health care systems.

Competition in health care spurs innovation, induces efficiency, and enhances quality, just as it does in other industries. The Business of Health examines the influence of market competition and government regulation on hospitals, health insurance, managed care plans, an Download The Business of Health for free via rapidshare, mediafire, 4shared, dropBox, uploading, fileserve

Health and Work Productivity pdf
Description

A recent study of productivity in the workplace revealed that workers spend on average eight percent of their workday doing nothing. This statistic takes on greater significance when we find that health problems impact employee productivity loss by an even greater percentage. In light of this discovery, a group of leading experts from the emerging field of health and productivity research argues that the expansion of health care benefits represents a substantial investment opportunity for employers.
 
Health and Work Productivity presents state-of-the-art health and productivity research that suggests interventions aimed at prevention, early detection, and best-practice treatment of workers along with an informed allocation strategy can produce significant cost-benefits for employers. Contributors cover all the major aspects of this new area of research: approaches to studying the effects of health on productivity, ways for employers to estimate the costs of productivity loss, Download Health and Work Productivity for free via rapidshare, mediafire, 4shared, dropBox, uploading, fileserve

The Shadow Welfare State pdf
Description

Why, in the recent campaigns for universal health care, did organized labor maintain its support of employer-mandated insurance? Did labor's weakened condition prevent it from endorsing national health insurance? Marie Gottschalk demonstrates here that the unions' surprising stance was a consequence of the peculiarly private nature of social policy in the United States. Her book combines a much-needed account of labor's important role in determining health care policy with a bold and incisive analysis of the American welfare state. Gottschalk stresses that, in the United States, the social welfare system is anchored in the private sector but backed by government policy. As a result, the private sector is a key political battlefield where business, labor, the state, and employees hotly contest matters such as health care. She maintains that the shadow welfare state of job-based benefits shaped the manner in which labor defined its policy interests and strategies.

The Migration of Managerial Innovation pdf
Description

This book looks at how an innovation in health care financing and administration, which originated in the United States, was greeted by numerous western European countries. In eleven original chapters, European experts offer in-depth examination of the rate, degree, and manner in which their countries adapted to Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGs), an innovation adopted by the U.S. government to create incentives for increased hospital efficiency. Comparing and contrasting the varying levels of resources and activity committed to this innovation, this book provides a range of insights for those involved in managing and promoting innovation. In The Migration of Managerial Innovation, health care experts from Belgium, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Norway, Portugal, Switzerland, and Sweden offer brief descriptions of the way health care is organized and financed--and a detailed examination of the fate of DRGs--within each of their countries.
