This textbook examines the many issues surrounding the cost and structure of health care in the U.S, such as the market for health insurance, the market for health care practitioners, the aging population, the legal system, technology, and public policies. The second edition adds sections on quality differences between managed care and fee-for-service care, consolidation in the hospital industry, and the economics of state-level health insurance mandates. c.
