This new edition of Health Services: Policy and Systems for the Therapists provides a comprehensive introduction to the structure and organization of the U.S. health care system, and the application of private and government insurance programs across a range of clinical practice areas.
The book provides an essential introduction to the latest policy developments, exploring issues such as access, cost, quality, licensure, informed consent, and medical liability. The book provides, too, detailed guidance on practical issues, including communication with managed care organizations and government claims reviewers, compliance and fraud/abuse prevention, and the completion of key documentation. This new edition has also been updated not only with the latest policy changes, but with new material on population health, value-based health care, and telehealth.
This is the ideal text to enable both students and practitioners across allied health disciplines to feel confident and assured working within the U.S. health care system.
