Description

Health Policymaking in the United States, 6th Edition

Health Policymaking in the United States, Sixth Edition provides a comprehensive exploration of the development, implementation, and evolution of health policy within the American political system. This edition focuses heavily on the landmark enactment of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), using it as a primary example of the incremental evolution that characterizes policymaking in the United States. Author Beaufort Longest establishes a clear framework for understanding how health policies are formulated and modified at both federal and state levels.

The text is designed to help students and healthcare professionals understand the relationship between policy decisions and their impact on providers and patients. It also offers practical insights into how individuals can influence the policymaking process. To provide real-world context, the book incorporates a variety of primary source materials, including excerpts from congressional testimony, news stories, executive orders, and legislative documents related to contemporary policy issues.
