This course focuses on major issues in the organization, financing, and delivery of health services in the U.S., analyzed in relation to patient access, equity, quality, and costs of health care, and ultimately population health and well-being. In particular, this course analyzes the U.S. health services system in terms of: (a) health across groups, (b) health care financing, (c) health care workforce, (d) health services organization, and (e) health system performance and reforms. This course is intended to provide the future health services, healthcare administrator, planner, practitioner, policy analyst, or researcher with fundamental knowledge to understand and evaluate the relative merits and limitations of health care services overall and various interventions and policies, and to anticipate the impact of specific changes to any part of the health services system.
