Understanding Health Policy: A Clinical Approach, Seventh Edition: 9781259584756: Medicine & Health Science Books @ desertcart.com Review: Thrilled! - I got this book because it was required for class. It goes through all different models of healthcare and explains it with examples of patient cases. It also explains the differences between the US system and Germany, Japan, UK, and Canada. I now feel confident in my knowledge of exactly how different types of insurance models work... I am very happy I had to read this and this is one of the few books that I feel teach you a ton in the lightest way possible. Review: Great book, as far as textbooks go. - This is a very interesting book. I had to read the whole thing for a graduate school course (nursing). It is written in a very straight forward, readable style and explains things very well. It addresses many aspects of health care issues in the U.S. and also has a chapter comparing our system with those of a few other countries with similar issue and economies. Price was reasonable for a textbook. You will come away from reading this book supporting universal health care!

Demystifying the complicated US health care system: Pros vs Cons
Short but adequate text replete with appropriate example to drive home each point. Very easy to read understand by anyone interested in understanding the health care system of the US. It contains synopsis about health system in other countries like the UK, Germany etc. This book is highly recommended.

Excellent Book
This is an excellent read. So far, this has been the best textbook I have been required to purchase on my journey to becoming a masters prepared registered nurse. I enjoyed it so much that I read it from front to back.

Nice book for healthcare workers
The book that I had bought was described as very good but for me, it was like a new one. It also arrived earlier than the expected date of arrival. Haven’t read it yet but I am sure this will help me in my post-graduate studies.
