This book provides an evidence-based approach to improving healthcare quality, access, and costs, helping practitioners make better decisions based on current evidence.

Format: Hardback
Length: 300 pages
Publication date: 28 July 2022
Publisher: Cambridge University Press


Consumers, public officials, and even managers of healthcare and insurance are dissatisfied with the quality, access, and costs of care. This book demonstrates that this is because efforts to address these issues often rely on hope or conjecture rather than rigorous evidence of effectiveness. In this book, experts in the field distinguish between speculative and proven approaches to care delivery, patient control, provider compensation, and reducing disparities. They also identify the areas where evidence is currently lacking. It provides an antidote to frustration and a clear-eyed guide for forward progress, helping healthcare and insurance innovators make better decisions about whether to proceed based on current evidence, seek additional evidence, or move on to different ideas. This book will be valuable to practitioners in hospital systems, medical groups, and insurance organizations, as well as in executive and MBA teaching.
