One important contribution Health Insurance Systems: An International Comparison makes to students, researchers, and policymakers is uniting and synthesizing information that is available only in scattered locations, if at all. A more important contribution is its ability to provide contexts, so people worldwide can understand various healthcare systems. By using it as a guide to the mechanics of different healthcare systems, they can look at existing systems as frameworks for developing their own. Case examples of countries adopting insurance characteristics from other countries enhance the critical insights it offers. If more information about health insurance alternatives can lead to better decisions, Health Insurance Systems: An International Comparison can provide an essential service. Delivers fundamental insights into health insurance organization and financing across high-income countries Presents ten prominent health insurance systems in one book, facilitating comparisons and, contrasts, to help draw policy lessons Helps students, researchers, and policymakers searching for innovative designs, by providing detailed international cases coupled with extensive cross-national data comparisons
