In this book, Phelps and Parente explore the US health care system
and set out the case for its reform. They trace the foundations of
today's system, and show how distortions in the incentives facing
participants in the health care market could be corrected in order
to achieve lower costs, a higher quality of care, a higher level of
patient safety, and a more efficient allocation of health care
resources. Phelps and Parente propose novel yet economically robust
changes to US tax law affecting health insurance coverage and
related issues. They also discuss a series of specific improvements
to Medicare and Medicaid, and assess potential innovations that
affect all of health care, including chronic disease management,
fraud and abuse detection, information technology, and other key
issues. The Economics of US Health Care Policy will be illuminating
reading for anyone with an interest in health policy, and will be a
valuable supplementary text for courses in health economics and
health policy, including for students without advanced training in
economics.
