This is due to both the widespread availability of pharmaceutical treatments, accompanied by broader insurance coverage, and the regulation of prescription drugs in both private and government plans. This book will bridge the gap. We will explore developments in both U.S. and International setting. The system of the U.S. is characterized by a mix of private and government insurance for prescription drugs with the expansion of Medicare Part D.

Every industrial nation in the world guarantees their citizens access to essential health care services–every country, that is, except the United States. Indeed, one in eight Americans–a shocking 43 million people–a majority of them in working families, do not have any health-care insurance. One Nation, Uninsured offers a vividly written, path-breaking history of America’s failed efforts to address the health care needs of its citizens. Ranging across the 20th century, Jill Quadagno shows how each attempt to enact national health insurance was met with fierce attacks by powerful stakeho

A Lost Cause: Bill Clinton's Campaign for National Health Insurance


A Lost Cause: Bill Clinton’s Campaign for National Health Insurance


$11.98


Bill Clinton’s 1993-94 health care reform initiative was one of the most active and sustained presidential campaigns ever undertaken in support of a single social issue, and certainly the boldest attempt to establish national health insurance in the United States. An analysis of the Clinton campaign, therefore, reveals much about the politics of divided government in the late 20th century, the apparent end of the New Deal-Great Society approach to governance and the enduring democratic coalition which supported it, and, of course, the high stakes politics of health care reform. This study attempts to advance our understanding of why national health insurance has proven to be such a potent idea while seemingly impossible to accomplish. The work focuses on the political factors which derailed the Clintons’ health care reform initiative, providing a case study of a most significant modern-day political and policy battle.

Health Insurance and Public Policy: Risk, Allocation, and Equity


$3.48


One of the most urgent issues facing the United States today is how to establish a comprehensive health insurance program at a time when nearly one in seven Americans lack insurance and costs for health care and medical fees are increasing at about 20 percent annually. An interdisciplinary team of experts provides a unique overview of the most important current problems and speaks to the key questions of risk, allocation, and equity. This text is designed for college, university, and professional courses in health and medical policy, public policy, public administration, law and society, bioethics, nursing, science and technology, and hospital administration. This public policy study offers a general framework for assessing health insurance from many vantage points, in terms of health policy impacts, the care of the needy, health insurance implementation, and prevention and risk. Chapters assess various national health insurance proposals, current congressional action and Medicare decisions, the social impacts of health insurance policy, coverage for displaced workers, the uninsured and hospital care in the inner city, charity care and community benefits, insuring high-risk persons, preventive health care screening for older women, and medical malpractice insurance, among other subjects. These analyses with real-life examples provide a solid introduction to all who want to understand health insurance and public policy issues today.

Who Pays for Car Accidents?: The Fault Versus No-Fault Insurance Debate


Who Pays for Car Accidents?: The Fault Versus No-Fault Insurance Debate


$8.98


In this new volume, two lawyers debate which kind of automobile insurance is the best, no-fault or tort liability. This book presents in one place all the legal, political, historical, and financial arguments about the two types of auto insurance. Under the fault system currently used by thirty-seven states, tort law provides that the party at fault in the accident pays the full damages of accident victims. Jerry J. Phillips favors this system, arguing that it allows for fair compensation to the injured and deters drivers from dangerous behavior on the road. Stephen Chippendale counters this claim with the argument that tort-law based insurance combines high cost and low benefits, and that those who truly profit from it are the lawyers representing injured clients, while their claims clog up the court system.

One Nation, Uninsured: Why the U.S. Has No National Health Insurance


$8.98


Every industrial nation in the world guarantees its citizens access to essential health care services–every country, that is, except the United States. In fact, one in eight Americans–a shocking 43 million people–do not have any health care insurance at all. One Nation, Uninsured offers a vividly written history of America’s failed efforts to address the health care needs of its citizens. Covering the entire twentieth century, Jill Quadagno shows how each attempt to enact national health insurance was met with fierce attacks by powerful stakeholders, who mobilized their considerable resources to keep the financing of health care out of the government’s hands. Quadagno describes how at first physicians led the anti-reform coalition, fearful that government entry would mean government control of the lucrative private health care market. Doctors lobbied legislators, influenced elections by giving large campaign contributions to sympathetic candidates, and organized "grassroots" protests, conspiring with other like-minded groups to defeat reform efforts. As the success of Medicare and Medicaid in the mid-century led physicians and the AMA to start scaling back their attacks, the insurance industry began assuming a leading role against reform that continues to this day. One Nation, Uninsured offers a sweeping history of the battles over health care. It is an invaluable read for anyone who has a stake in the future of America’s health care system.

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER II DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL INSURANCE IN EUROPE It is quite customary, especially among popular writers on the subject, to credit the brilliant mind of the Iron Chancellor of the German Empire, Bismarck, with the origin of the whole magnificent structure of social insurance; and in a certain superficial, matter-of-fact sort of way, some arguments may be brought forward in support of this view. But even a hasty study of the earlier efforts at social and workingmen’s insurance in Germany and France and other countries shows how very little historical insight such a view conveys. There is no doubt that the modern conception of social insurance?as a system carrying with it compulsion, state subsidies, and strict state supervision and control?has reached its highest development in modern Germany, so that any system embodying, to any large degree, all these three elements, may be described as the German system. But even preceding the German bills of 1881 and acts of 1883 and 1884, numerous acts were passed by many German, as well as many other European states, which embodied some or all of the three leading principles of this German system. No one human brain was ever big enough to create out of itself a social institution of such tremendous import. Modern historical science has long ceased to seek the explanation of growth of any social institution in the secrets of the workings of any one individual mind. It may be admitted that it was Bismarck who contributed to the history of Social Insurance the first application of State Compulsion on a large national scale. But he did not " invent " the principle of workmen’s insurance, nor that of state insurance, nor that of compulsion. In the decade prior to the introduction of the compulsory insurance system, there existed in Germany …

The Healthcare Fix: Universal Insurance for All Americans


The Healthcare Fix: Universal Insurance for All Americans


$5.98


The shocking statistic is that forty-seven million Americans have no health insurance. When uninsured Americans go to the emergency room for treatment, however, they do receive care–and a bill. Many hospitals now require uninsured patients to put their treatment on a credit card–which can saddle a low-income household with unpayably high balances that can lead to personal bankruptcy. Why don’t these people just buy health insurance? Because the cost of coverage that doesn’t come through an employer is more than many low- and middle-income households make in a year. Meanwhile, rising healthcare costs for employees are driving many businesses under. As for government-supplied health care, ever higher costs and added benefits (for example, Part D, Medicare’s new prescription drug coverage) make both Medicare and Medicaid impossible to sustain fiscally; benefits grow faster than the national per-capita income. It’s obvious the system is broken. What can we do? In "The Healthcare Fix, " economist Laurence Kotlikoff proposes a simple, straightforward approach to the problem that would create one system that works for everyone–and secure America’s fiscal and economic future. Kotlikoff’s proposed Medical Security System is not the "socialized medicine" so feared by Republicans and libertarians; it’s a plan for universal health insurance. Because everyone would be insured, it’s also a plan for universal healthcare. Participants–including all who are currently uninsured, all Medicaid and Medicare recipients, and all with private or employer-supplied insurance–would receive annual vouchers for health insurance, the amount of which would be based on their current medical condition. Insurance companies would willingly accept people with health problems because their vouchers would be higher. And the government could control costs by establishing the values of the vouchers so that benefit growth no longer outstrips growth of the nation’s per capita income. It’s a "single-payer" plan–but a single payer for insurance. The American healthcare industry would remain competitive, innovative, strong, and private. Kotlikoff’s plan is strong medicine for America’s healthcare crisis, but brilliant in its simplicity. Its provisions can fit on a postcard–and Kotlikoff provides one, ready to be copied and mailed to your representative in Congress. We’re electing a new president in 2008; let’s choose a new healthcare system, too–one that works.

Paying the Price: The Status and Role of Insurance Against Natural Disasters in the U.S.


Paying the Price: The Status and Role of Insurance Against Natural Disasters in the U.S.


$20.48


This book considers the effectiveness of insurance coverage for low-probability, high-consequence events such as natural disasters — and how insurance programs can successfully be used with other policy tools, such as building codes and standards, to encourage effective loss reduction measures. The authors discuss the reasons for the dramatic increase since 1989 in insured losses from natural disasters and the concern that insurers have about their ability to provide coverage against more such events in the future. The book addresses why there has been an increasing demand for hazard insurance, what types of coverage private insurers are willing to offer, and the role of reinsurance and private/public-sector initiatives at the state and federal levels for providing protection to victims of natural disasters. Detailed case studies of the challenges facing Florida in the wake of Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and California following the Northridge earthquake in 1994 reveal the challenges facing the insurance industry as well as other concerned stakeholders. The National Flood Insurance Program illustrates how a public/private-sector partnership can mitigate damages and provide financial protection to victims. This volume identifies new initiatives for reducing future losses and providing funds for recovery through cooperation by the relevant parties.

War and Health Insurance Policy in Japan and the United States: World War II to Postwar Reconstruction


War and Health Insurance Policy in Japan and the United States: World War II to Postwar Reconstruction


$68.48


World War II forced extensive and comprehensive social and political changes on nations across the globe. This comparative examination of health insurance in the United States and Japan during and after the war explores how WWII shaped the health care systems of both countries. Takakazu Yamagishi discusses the effect of total war on the development of health insurance in both countries and compares the two using four measures: political structure, the power of interest groups, the existing political culture, and policy feedback. During the war, the U.S. and Japanese governments realized that healthy soldiers, workers, mothers, and children were vital to national survival. While both countries adopted new, expansive national insurance policies as part of their WWII mobilization efforts, they approached doing so in different manners and achieved near opposite results. In the U.S., private insurance became the predominant means of insuring people, save for a few government-run programs. Japan, meanwhile, created a near-universal public insurance system. After the war, the nations further consolidated their respective insurance policy. Yamagishi argues that these disparate outcomes were the result of each nation’s war experience. He looks closely at postwar Japan and investigates how struggles between the American occupation authority and U.S. domestic forces, such as the American Medical Association, actually helped solidify the country’s existing health insurance system. Original and tightly argued, this volume makes a strong case for treating total war as a central factor in understanding how the health insurance systems of the two nations grew while bearing in mind the dual nature of government intervention — however slight — in health care. Those interested in debates about health care in industrialized countries and scholars of comparative political development especially will appreciate and learn from Yamagishi’s study.

Handbook of Insurance


Handbook of Insurance


$211.48


In the 1970′s, the research agenda in insurance was dominated by optimal insurance coverage, security design, and equilibrium under conditions of imperfect information. The 1980′s saw a growth of theoretical developments including non-expected utility, price volatility, retention capacity, the pricing and design of insurance contracts in the presence of multiple risks, and the liability insurance crisis. The empirical study of information problems, financial derivatives, and large losses due to catastrophic events dominated the research agenda in the 1990′s. The Handbook of Insurance provides a single reference source on insurance for professors, researchers, graduate students, regulators, consultants, and practitioners, that reviews the research developments in insurance and its related fields that have occurred over the last thirty years. The book starts with the history and foundations of insurance theory and moves on to review asymmetric information, risk management and insurance pricing, and the industrial organization of insurance markets. The book ends with life insurance, pensions, and economic security. Each chapter has been written by a leading authority in insurance, all contributions have been peer reviewed, and each chapter can be read independently of the others.

Medical Malpractice: Prevention, Insurance, and Coverage Options


$46.98


Confidence in a country’s health care system, its viability, its smooth functioning and patient safety require indemnification and deterrence systems that: Adequately cover liability, both that of the medical practitioner and the health care establishment; Provide fair compensation of injury; and Deter medical malpractices. Over the last years, in many OECD countries, these systems have experienced difficulties resulting in high-risk specialty physicians and surgeons leaving the practice and the development of expensive and useless-if not risky-defensive medicine.This publication surveys and assesses various types of mechanisms and reforms implemented and refined in OECD countries that best limit and indemnify medical accidents. Reasons for difficulties faced by some compensation and prevention regimes, given the specificities of national circumstances and in particular of health care systems, are examined.The study offers a series of unique and focused policy options and suggestions of interest for private and public parties in countries in the process of establishing a more efficient indemnification and deterrence system to cope with medical accidents.

Insurance as Governance


Insurance as Governance


$63.48


Insurance as Governance is the first major sociological study of the hidden world of the insurance industry. It examines how the industry governs our institutions and daily lives in ways that are largely invisible, and how it thereby functions as a form of government beyond the state. The text provides a sophisticated integration of empirical data and theoretical issues about insurance, risk, governance, and security. Drawing on extensive ethnographic research on industry practices, the author team penetrates the complexities of the insurance industry and demonstrates why insurance is such a powerful and pervasive institution. Together Ericson, Doyle, and Barry advance the concept of moral risk as they consider how insurance companies partner with governments and corporations in the negotiation of political economy. In effect, Insurance as Governance documents liberal theory at work. It offers a major case study of liberal governance beyond the state and explores such larger issues as how insurance is increasingly liberal rather than welfarist in orientation, and how insurance is the vanguard of liberalization in governance throughout post-industrial societies. Impressive in scope and original in approach, this text is a pivotal piece of sociological research.

Joan Hangarter bought a disability policy in 1990 to protect her in case of serious illness. When she did become disabled a decade later, she ended up homeless and on welfare when the company refused to pay. With the help of her attorney, Ray Bourhis, she fought back, winning a $7.7 million verdict against the company. In "Insult to Injury, Bourhis walks readers through this case study in bad faith double-dealing by insurance providers. Bourhis, a national champion of policy-holder rights, uses an engaging narrative style to reveal the back-room strategic mind-set that drives these illegal practices, how low-level employees are duped into unethical conduct, and how insurers manipulate data and witnesses in the few cases that do go to trial. He also explains the key regulatory oversights that encourage such corruption, and how the American legal system actually facilitates insurer fraud. "Insult to Injury closes with a roadmap to reform — advice no one who holds a policy can afford to ignore.

Disability: Challenges for Social Insurance, Health Care Financing, and Labor Market Policy


Disability: Challenges for Social Insurance, Health Care Financing, and Labor Market Policy


$7.98


This book presents a cross-cutting assessment of disability income policy in public and private programs in the United States and in European countries. It evaluates whether there is a crisis in disability benefit policy, drawing on an in-depth review of Social Security disability programs by a panel of national experts. In addition to highlighting the panel’s findings and recommendations for reform, the authors debate issues in financing and delivering quality health care through Medicare and Medicaid for working-age persons with disabilities, and they examine new developments in how Workers’ Compensation organizes and finances cash benefits and health care for workers injured on the job. These developments in benefits and health policy for disabled workers are examined in light of budget constraints and challenges posed by today’s rapidly changing labor market. The book concludes with a provocative discussion of " where are the jobs?" –an assessment of growing wage inequality between less skilled and highly skilled workers and the implication of labor market trends for goals of promoting employment among persons with chronic health conditions or disabilities. The contributors include Monroe Berkowitz, Rutgers University; Richard V. Burkhauser, Syracuse University; John Burton, Rutgers University; Philip de Jong, Institute for Law and Public Policy, Leiden University, the Netherlands; Alan Krueger, Princeton University; Katherine Newman, Harvard University; Van Ooms, Committee on Economic Development; Dallas Salisbury, Employee Benefit Research Institute; Leslie Scallet, Mental Health Policy Resource Center; and the Honorable Bruce C.

Deadly Spin: An Insurance Company Insider Speaks Out on How Corporate PR Is Killing Health Care and Deceiving Americans


Deadly Spin: An Insurance Company Insider Speaks Out on How Corporate PR Is Killing Health Care and Deceiving Americans


$21.48


Wendell Potter is the insurance industry’s worst nightmare. In June 2009, Wendell Potter made national headlines with his scorching testimony before the Senate panel on health care reform. This former senior VP of CIGNA explained how health insurers make promises they have no intention of keeping, how they flout regulations designed to protect consumers, and how they skew political debate with multibillion-dollar PR campaigns designed to spread disinformation. Potter had walked away from a six-figure salary and two decades as an insurance executive because he could no longer abide the routine practices of an industry where the needs of sick and suffering Americans take a backseat to the bottom line. The last straw: when he visited a rural health clinic and saw hundreds of people standing in line in the rain to receive treatment in stalls built for livestock. In "Deadly Spin," Potter takes readers behind the scenes to show how a huge chunk of our absurd healthcare spending actually bankrolls a propaganda campaign and lobbying effort focused on protecting one thing: profits. Whatever the fate of the current health care legislation, it makes no attempt to change that fundamental problem. Potter shows how relentless PR assaults play an insidious role in our political process anywhere that corporate profits are at stake–from climate change to defense policy. "Deadly Spin" tells us why–and how–we must fight back. "Wendell Potter is a straight shooter–and he hits the bulls-eye here with an expose of corporate power that reveals why real health care reform didn’t happen, can’t happen, and won’t happen until that power is contained.–Bill Moyers "The recently passed health care bill did many good things, including make health insurance available to more Americans and restrain some of the most egregious practices of the health insurance industry. It also forced more people to become customers of that industry. What the bill did "not" do is reform the health care system. Wendell Potter explains why not, and what went wrong."–Howard Dean "Wendell Potter transformed the national debate over health care when he stood up and told the truth about the health insurance industry. By breaking the insurance industry’s code of silence and explaining to his fellow Americans how health insurance companies put profits ahead of patient care, Wendell showed extraordinary courage. The compelling story of Wendell’s conversion from a health care executive to an outspoken reform advocate is essential reading for anyone trying to understand the American health care system."–Senator Jay Rockefeller of West Virginia

Do Not Resuscitate: Why the Health Insurance Industry Is Dying, and How We Must Replace It


$18.48


"Geyman’s literary voice arises from his unusual professional and political trajectories: from country doctor to academic department chair and prominent journal editor, and from longtime Republican to president of Physicians for a National Health Program . . . a passionate advocate and scholar."–The New England Journal of Medicine "The raging debate over how to pay for health insurance has missed a profoundly important fact: As big as it is, as tight of a grip it has on American life, the health insurance industry is dying," states John Geyman, MD, in Do Not Resuscitate: Why the Health Insurance Industry is Dying, and How We Must Replace It. Written for lay readers, health care professionals, and policymakers alike, Do Not Resuscitate moves beyond books that decry our current problems to reveal what the trend for more than half a century of increasing costs and decreasing coverage really means. The situation for doctors, patients, caregivers, and even the insured will move from dysfunctional to a complete breakdown over the next decade. In one of many examples Geyman cites, as employers cut costs in a global economy, the cost of health insurance as a proportion of wages is rising to the point where it will consume all average household income by 2025. John Geyman is professor emeritus of family medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle, Washington. He is the author of The Corrosion of Medicine: Can the Profession Reclaim its Moral Legacy?, Falling Through the Safety Net: Americans Without Health Insurance, and Shredding the Social Contract: The Privatization of Medicare.
