Book excerpt: With federal health reform reliant on the ability of consumers to obtain private insurance, affordability is the key to successfully expanding access to care. The evidence in this report leads to the conclusion that direct, robust regulation of insurance rates, with a formal right of public intervention in rate proceedings, is necessary to ensure affordability and fairness while preserving a healthy, competitive health insurance market. The most comprehensive model for such regulation comes not from the world of health insurance, but from Proposition 103, a voter--passed law in California that requires prior review and approval of rates in the property and casualty markets.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health policy in the United States has been shaped by the political, socioeconomic, and ideological environment, with important roles played by public and private actors, as well as institutional and individual entities, in designing the contemporary American healthcare system. Now in a fully updated fifth edition, this book gives expanded attention to pressing issues for our policymakers, including the aging American population, physician shortages, gene therapy, specialty drugs, and the opioid crisis. A new chapter has been added on the Trump administration's failed attempts at repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act and subsequent attempts at undermining it via executive orders. Authors Kant Patel and Mark Rushefsky address the key problems of healthcare cost, access, and quality through analyses of Medicare, Medicaid, the Veterans Health Administration, and other programs, and the ethical and cost implications of advances in healthcare technology. Each chapter concludes with discussion questions and a comprehensive reference list. This textbook will be required reading for courses on health and healthcare policy, as well as all those interested in the ways in which American healthcare has evolved over time.

Book excerpt: In Excellent Health offers an alternative view of the much maligned state of health care in America, using facts and peer-reviewed data to challenge the statistics often cited as evidence that medical care in the United States is substandard and poor in value relative to that of other countries. The author proposes a complete plan for reform in three critical areas of the health care puzzle—tax structure, private insurance markets, and government health insurance programs—designed to maintain choice and access to excellence and facilitate competition.
