This book is just a bunch of journal articles that could easily be found on your school library site. I got absolutely no information from this book and found it redundant to spend money on a book that listed articles I can find for free elsewhere. This is a reference book only and should not be used for teaching a class. Worthless.
I would highly recommend this book to assist your personal knowledge in health policy changes currently happening in the United States. ACO and medical homes that focus on patient centered care approach is coming more to the fore front.
I really liked the 5th edition and it worked well for my graduate class. Articles generated a lot of heated discussion. The new edition is overwhelming with way too much material that is not presented very well. The book is close to 800 pages and only 5 main subsections. The book does NOT provide any coherent presentation about health care policy for students! Sadly I am looking for other books. I am hesitant about even giving the book one star.
Has interesting points; has lots of graphs and tables to make the points clear. I would recommend this book highly but it does not read like a novel.
Awesome book for those passionate about learning of our government's health policies and deficits.
Awesome seller. Hard read, not a well written book.
Great Condition, Thank you
