| 500 | |a This book provides a moral evaluation of American health care. It is in three main parts: a review and analysis of conditions bearing on access to quality health care, a philosophical analysis and defence of the concept of a moral right to health care, and a discussion of various policy alternatives for reform of the US system for delivering health care. The first chapter demonstrates that many Americans, especially among blacks, persons from low income families, and those with less education, are underserved by the present system. Persons in these groups have significantly worse health characteristics than other Americans. Do these persons have a right to health care? If so, to what kinds of care and how much? In part two, four contemporary theories of justice and of peoples' rights - utilitarianism, egalitarianism, libertarianism, and contractarianism - are examined and their implications for a right to health care described. Each theory is then discussed in terms of a right to health care that encompasses non-interference with one's health, primary care, curative care under some circumstances, and the freedom to buy additional health care not guaranteed by right.; What is to be done? This is the central question of the third part, which examines and evaluates alternative directions for reform of the American health care system | ||

National Health Care Plans: Medicare and Medicaid; National Health Insurance; A National Health Care Service This book provides a moral evaluation of American health care. It is in three main parts: a review and analysis of conditions bearing on access to quality health care, a philosophical analysis and defence of the concept of a moral right to health care, and a discussion of various policy alternatives for reform of the US system for delivering health care. The first chapter demonstrates that many Americans, especially among blacks, persons from low income families, and those with less education, are underserved by the present system. Persons in these groups have significantly worse health characteristics than other Americans. Do these persons have a right to health care? If so, to what kinds of care and how much? In part two, four contemporary theories of justice and of peoples' rights - utilitarianism, egalitarianism, libertarianism, and contractarianism - are examined and their implications for a right to health care described. Each theory is then discussed in terms of a right to health care that encompasses non-interference with one's health, primary care, curative care under some circumstances, and the freedom to buy additional health care not guaranteed by right.; What is to be done? This is the central question of the third part, which examines and evaluates alternative directions for reform of the American health care system Politique sanitaire HEALTH & FITNESS / Health Care Issues bisacsh MEDICAL / Public Health bisacsh MEDICAL / Health Policy bisacsh HEALTH & FITNESS / Diseases / General bisacsh MEDICAL / Diseases bisacsh MEDICAL / Health Care Delivery bisacsh Medical care fast Medical care / Utilization fast Medical policy fast Gesundheitsfürsorge swd Gesundheitswesen swd Health Policy / United States Public Health Administration / United States Delivery of Health Care / United States Medizin Medical care United States Medical care Utilization United States Medical policy United States Gesundheitswesen (DE-588)4020775-4 gnd rswk-swf Gesundheitsfürsorge (DE-588)4136585-9 gnd rswk-swf USA USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Gesundheitswesen (DE-588)4020775-4 s 1\p DE-604 Gesundheitsfürsorge (DE-588)4136585-9 s 2\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 0-19-505272-2 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Paperback 978-0-19-505272-5 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=168993 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
