No Margin, No Mission: Health-Care Organizations and the Quest for Ethical Excellence


Add your own review!

Overview

Can the ethical mission of health care survive among organisations competing for survival in the marketplace? On this question hinges not only the future of health care in the US, but that of the health care systems of all advanced countries. This book presents both an analytic framework and a menu of pragmatic answers. How can health plans determine medical necessity in a way that ensures quality care, controls costs, and builds trust with patients and physicians? What are the strategies for caring for vulnerable populations that meet their special needs without dramatically increasing costs? To answer these and other similar questions the authors blend ethical analysis with real-world examples. The outcome is a rich analysis of the ethical challenges facing health care organisations, combined with tangible examples of exemplary methods to address these challenges.
