Average Customer Ratings:

Health Economics and Policy is a basic introduction to the microeconomics of health, health care, and health policy. This edition demonstrates how economic principles apply to health-related issues. It explains the social, political, and economic contexts of health care delivery and explores the changing nature of health care. Students learn to analyze public policy from an economic perspective. While the text was written for non-economics majors, it includes enough economic content to challenge majors.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Dated for a 2005 edition -

The text is quite dated for a 2005 edition. All of the citations are over 5 years old. The material is written at highly advanced economics level and may not be appropriate as a multi-disciplinary text.

Excellent book -
Dr. Henderson has written a book is very helpful to anyone interested in all factors that surround health policy. One does not have to have a background in economics to benefit from this book. It is an excellent reference to anyone who is pursuing a health-related degree, or simply interested in our current health care system, factors that have influenced the development of our current health care system, and comparisons to the health care systems of other countries, and more. I took the class on this subject from the author several years ago. He is extremely brilliant and knowledgable in his field, and very interesting. I am equally glad that I did not sell back the book. I have used it for a reference many times as I have continued on in my education.

EXCELLENT -
I had the pleasure of taking this class from the author of this class. Dr. Henderson is not only absolutely excellent teacher, he is an equally good writer. I was not an economics major, and was somewhat fearful about taking "Economics of Medicine" as a class, but this book is thorough, organized, and easy to understand. It is an excellent book for economics majors as well as those majoring in other health care related professions who have an interest in learning more about the current health care system and related policies.

Great from economic major -
Well..It has everything you need for Health insurance question or helath exconomic problem.
