Improving Health Policy and Management: Nine Critical Research Issues for the 1990s (The Baxter Health Policy Review)

Inaugurating a new series, this important volume bridges the gap between policy-makers and health services research by offering comprehensive analyses of key health issues. Specifically, it examines nine critical issues in health care delivery, including minimum health benefits, care of the elderly, cost-containment, malpractice and prolongation of life. Part two lists current and ongoing health services research projects related to each issue, along with the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of principal investigators.
