Reforming Markets in Health Care

Meer over het boek

The book explores the implications of creating explicit markets in health care, focusing on the separation of care purchasing from provision. It addresses unresolved issues such as the potential rise in management costs, the necessary information for market efficiency, and the compatibility of market systems with societal goals of equity and solidarity. Through commentaries from leading health economists, it analyzes the UK government's reforms to the National Health Service, aiming to make economic insights accessible to a broader audience.
