Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's two o'clock in the morning. Your family has gathered in the emergency room, awaiting information on a loved one. Your heart rate is elevated; you feel overwhelmed. The anxiety you're experiencing will likely increase in the coming hours, days, and months.Medical emergencies disrupt communications and relationships, even in the most stable of families. Who is responsible for communicating with medical staff, often from different specialties? Who will monitor the patient's daily care and progress? Who decides where the patient will go after hospitalization? Who feeds the pets and pays the bills at home?This handbook is a road map to guide families during this unfamiliar and stressful time. It covers twenty years of navigating the healthcare system as consumers and working in it as practitioners. The book provides a step-by-step chronological list of questions to ask and decisions to make, from the first emergency room visit through aftercare options. It advises on numerous topics, including scheduling surgery, monitoring prescriptions, selecting a short or long-term care facility, assigning friends and family helpful tasks beyond the casserole, and how best to advocate for your patient throughout the process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bioethics and the Law takes a multidisciplinary approach that combines legal discussion with jurisprudential, philosophical, and sociological materials. Strong expressions of different points of view highlight debates about bioethical issues. The text underscores the need to mediate between the law's focus on broad rules and the bioethicist's concern with context and detail. Students are required to consider the ethical implications of health care as a business, face the shifting parameters of the provider/patient relationship in healthcare, and understand the role of government in designing and implementing healthcare programs such as Medicaid and Medicare. Bioethics and the Law supplements the traditional focus of bioethics on the interest of the individual with a second focus on the socio-economic developments that shape healthcare. Connecting broad public healthcare issues to concerns of the individual patient/healthcare consumer, the text promotes understanding of unsettling and complex situations and shows the implications of bioethical developments for understandings of personhood. A helpful glossary defines basic terms and several short appendices summarize recent developments in science and technology.

The primary audience of the Handbook includes analytics scholars interested in healthcare and healthcare practitioners interested in analytics. This Handbook: Instills analytics scholars with a way of thinking that incorporates behavioral, incentive, and policy considerations in various healthcare settings. This change in perspective—a shift in gaze away from narrow, local and one-off operational improvement efforts that do not replicate, scale or remain sustainable—can lead to new knowledge and innovative solutions that healthcare has been seeking so desperately. Facilitates collaboration between healthcare experts and analytics scholar to frame and tackle their pressing concerns through appropriate modern mathematical tools designed for this very purpose. The handbook is designed to be accessible to the independent reader, and it may be used in a variety of settings, from a short lecture series on specific topics to a semester-long course.
