In Pursuit of an Improving National Health Service

.

Chapter 12 in Health Care, the Market and Consumer Choice, 2012, pp 180-197 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In this well-documented book, Alain Enthoven develops the ideas of consumer choice and managed competition of alternative health care financing and delivery systems, as well as describing ways to improve quality and reduce the cost of health care. He demonstrates how these ideas could be applied in the American employment-based health insurance model, how similar ideas have been introduced in the British National Health Service; how these ideas have been applied in the Netherlands; and the need for integrated comprehensive care systems.
