Recenzii
Making care truly personal, redesigning how we deliver it, and creating incentives to progressively improve outcomes and productivity are at the heart of what we need to do. And it will be obvious from this list that only the overall framework can be established by government the rest is up to health system managers, medical professionals and all of us as patients.
The book reads with ease. The chapters are focused and the subject well-described. I liked the breakdown of the chapters in small parts, well and clearly titled. This helps to maintain the attention on a subject that can be rather dry...A thorough and very helpful overview of the impact that globalisation is having on the struggle countries face in their efforts (or lack of them) to try to manage the effects of drinking alcohol in their population and the impact on the publlc health of their nations...I can see myself referring back to this book again and again in future as I assess my personal role in the health sector and engage colleagues and patients in the debate to determine what will be the best option(s) for the future.
An accessible and comprehensive snapshot of the complex healthcare environment with which policy makers wrestle...A must read for those who want to be part of solutions to get best treatments to the most people and allow us all to benefit from one of the most remarkably exciting fields of human activity...understanding and fixing ourselves.
This book is a must for healthcare leaders on both sides of the Atlantic. It grapples with the big question of how we can afford the future.
The next 20 years will see huge strides in how medical science could transform our lives. This book not only describes what will be possible but also whether and how we can afford it.
A very engaging and enjoyable read, covering a colossal amount of ground without feeling stretched...translating the more upstream science into practical implications for the general public. A great primer on the health future - for both the health-informed and those coming to such thoughts for the first time.
The author is to be congratulated: a well-rounded synopsis of the "present to the future" situation in healthcare...skillfully balancing the transition from basic to applied science, to healthcare and to potential political and economic solutions.
This book offers a penetrating analysis of the underlying problems, and offers some simple, but far-reaching solutions to bring supply and demand back into balance and avoid the meltdown. It is not a contribution to the current political debate but a primer for the changes to the underlying fabric of healthcare if reforms such as "Obamacare" have any chance of sustainable success.
The book goes where few go, and that is to compare issues in the U.S. and U.K. and note how some issues such as need for redesign are similar even though the healthcare payment or insurance models are different.
Barker's book is a brief and excellent primer on current and possible future trends in medical care. His readable prose captures and synthesizes well the current thinking on how to deal with costs associated with medical advancement.
