The simplest, most-readable guide to navigating health care delivery in the United States 

One of the most popular resources of its kind, Understanding Health Policy: A Clinical Approach provides everything you need to master the U.S. health care system’s nuances and complexities.

Written by practicing primary care physicians who are experts in health care policy, this comprehensive guide covers the entire scope of the U.S. health care system and draws on lessons from systems in other nations. New content in this fully updated edition includes deeper coverage of: 

•  Cost and financing issues, with an emphasis on how it impacts the U.S. economy •  Public health systems, including a discussion of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on health policy and delivery •  Social determinants of health and disparities •  Professional burnout and its impact on health care delivery  •  The Affordable Care Act, Accountable Care Organizations, and system consolidation

Packed with clinical vignettes highlighting key policy issues and clarifying difficult concepts, Understanding Health Policy weaves key principles, descriptions, and concrete examples into chapters that make vital health policy issues interesting and understandable. 

Whether you’re a student, medical practitioner, or public policy professional, you will come away with a clearer, more systematic way of thinking about our health care system, its biggest challenges, and the most effective ways of making it better for everyone.
