Jeff Taragano
Health Cents: Isn`t It Time Your Health Insurance Wrote You a Check

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In his role as Chief Operating Officer, Jeff Taragano has saved corporations millions of dollars. He achieved this through corporate reorganization and cost reduction techniques--obtaining substantial refunds by auditing bills, recovering overcharges and improving systems for companies and individuals over his 20 year career. But it wasn`t until his son made over 75 visits to various doctors in one year that he realized how many mistakes doctors, medical billing companies and insurance companies make.By the end of that year, when the errors had amounted to over $3,000 in overcharges--and subsequent refunds--he realized he had developed a system other people could benefit from, too. That system turned into Health Cent$. By using the methods described in this book, he saved over $15,000 in seven years for himself and his family. Using the same system, he saved even more money for his friends, relatives and co-workers. [detailed...]

Health Economics in Development (Health, Nutrition, and Population Series)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Economists and public health specialists do not always understand one another, to the detriment of how health systems function. This collection of papers, spanning over 20 years of thinking and writing, aims to bring these disciplines closer together, through exploration of basic concepts, development of ways to think about such ideas as equity, efficiency, cost-effectiveness and the best way to finance health care, and empirical analyses of several interventions against specific diseases or health risks. Health Economics in Development explains basic concepts, for the benefit of non-economists working in public health and further develops some of those concepts to show how they can be applied to real situations. These include how the burden of illhealth is measured, how economic thinking helps judge the proper roles of the state and the market in health, ways to understand and measure equity, and the characteristics of sound and equitable financing for health. The empirical… [detailed...]

Health Financing for Poor People: Resource Mobilization and Risk Sharing

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Most community financing schemes have evolved in the context of severe economic constraints, political instability, and lack of good governance. Usually government taxation capacity is weak, formal mechanisms of social protection for vulnerable populations absent, and government oversight of the informal health sector lacking. In this context of extreme public sector failure, community involvement in the financing of health care provides a critical albeit insufficient first step in the long march towardsimproved access to health care by the poor and social protection against the cost of illness. Health Financing for Poor People stresses that community financing schemes are no panacea for the problems that low-income countries face in resource mobilization. They should be regarded as a complement to ? not as a substitute for ? strong government involvement in health care financing and risk management related to the cost of illness. Based on an extensive survey of the… [detailed...]

Health Law and the European Union

2004 y.
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Description: How does the law of the European Union affect health law and policy? At first sight, it seems limited. However, despite its restricted formal competence, the EU has recently become increasingly involved in the health field. Litigation based on EU law has resulted in a `right to receive health care services` across national boundaries which may have huge practical implications for national health systems. The EU has promulgated legislation regulating clinical research, and the marketing of pharmaceuticals, patients` rights are affected by EU legislation on data protection and product liability, the qualifications of health care professionals are legally recognised across the EU, and the EU has acted to promote public health. This book explores the various impacts of measures of EU law on national health law and policy. Through elaboration of selected examples, the authors show that, within the EU, health law cannot be regarded as a purely national affair. [detailed...]

This text explores the health system`s effect on health care and professional practice on societal, institutional, and health team levels. It also clarifies models of disciplinary collaboration, and the contributions of the interdisciplinary model. It relates clinical and non-clinical disciplines and facilitates change toward a more synergistic and effective health system. This book addresses its key issues in two ways: First, it explores the present health care system and how it shapes the health care that older adults receive and the practices of their health professionals. Second, it explores five models of collaboration among health disciplines and how they differ in terms of mutual understanding, extent of collaboration, overlap and flexibility of roles, and openness to incorporating knowledge and skills from one another.
