Whether in the Swiss countryside or in a doctor's office in Boston,
in German, English or French hospitals or within multinational
organizations, with early vaccinations or with new pharmaceuticals
from Big Pharma today, or in early modern Saxon mining towns or in
Prussian military healthcare - for at least 500 years, accounting
has been an essential part of medical practice with significant
moral, social and epistemological implications. Covering the period
between 1500-2000, the book examines in short case studies the
importance of calculative practices for medicine in very different
contexts. Thus, Accounting for Health offers a synopsis of the
extent to which accounting not only influenced medical practices
over centuries, but shaped modern medicine as a whole. This book is
relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3, Good
health and well-being. -- .
