More Description
A core text for a one-quarter/semester, undergraduate/graduate-level course in Health Services (health policy and the health care system) and a complimentary text for courses in Administration/Management for PT/OT.
Cutting-edge in focus, this introduction to health services prepares readers for the rapid and continuing changes in private and public health policy that have changed and continue to change the work environment for occupational therapists and physical therapists. Written specifically from the therapist's perspective, it explains the principles and major structures of health services without overburdening students with the minutiae of these complicated programs so they can understand how policies and systems affect their ability to serve patients and how they can be effective advocates during private and public policy change.
