This course provides a comprehensive overview of the structure, function, financing and other critical issues associated with the United States' health care system from an inter-disciplinary perspective. It is a recommended course for graduate study and fourth year students, in all programs in the College of Health Professions. This course is designed to facilitate students' appreciation of the health care system as a system--that is, as a set of interdependent actors-and, thus, to appreciate the wide-spread consequences of decisions in the clinical, policy, and management arenas on the efficiency, effectiveness and equity of health services. Major actors (institutional and professional providers, patients and populations, and payers, including government and private) are examined in the context of the structure, organization, and financing of health care. The behavior of each actor in response to current economic, political, and ethical issues is explored. Students are encouraged to analyze the system critically and consider ways in which it might be restructured to improve its efficiency, effectiveness and equity. Cross-listed with IHS 405.
