Förlagets beskrivning
SHI systems in Europe are often complex and difficult to describe. This is
highlighted by the difficulty analysts frequently have in pinning down exactly
which specific health sector arrangements constitute an SHI system. Defining
these arrangements is particularly important to reach beyond individual SHI
systems in order to assess the performance of SHI systems in general. Using the
seven SHI countries in western Europe - Austria, Belgium, France, Germany,
Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Switzerland - as well as Israel this important
new book reviews the core structural and organizational dimensions as well as
recent/current reforms and innovations using a framework based on typical SHI
characteristics; it explores the nature of the pressures these health systems
confront to be more efficient, more effective, and more responsive; and reviews
their success in addressing these pressures to date. It also examines the
implications of these responses on the defining characteristics of SHIs.
Finally, the book draws out a set of policy lessons about past experience and
likely future developments in SHI systems in a manner useful to policymakers in
Europe and elsewhere
