Deconstructing the Welfare State (eBook, ePUB)

Managing Healthcare in the Age of Reform

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the daily realities of working life for mid-level managers in the UK's NHS and critiques the movement towards a healthcare model, based around HMO-type providers such as Kaiser Permanente, that is well-known internationally but is often considered far from 'best practice' when it comes to patient care.
