This AJN award-winning textbook helps readers understand and critically assess the US health care system and policies. With a focus on the prevalence of disparities in health and health care, the book reviews the historical evolution and organization of our health care system. Several social justice theories are used to critically evaluate current US Healthcare systems and policies, providing readers with various perspectives of the field. Extensive coverage of our health care system’s structures, finances, and performance on a variety of population health indicators provides the necessary background, frameworks, and principles through which the adequacy of alternative health care system financing strategies can be analyzed.
Highlights include:
- Analyzes the current US Healthcare system and policies from several social justice theories providing a critical examination of the field.
- Examines the historical evolvement of the US health care system, its financing and health care delivery structures, and the prospects for health care reform.
- Analyzes disparities in access to health and health care by race, ethnicity, class, age, gender, and geography.

- Updated data on long-term financing and expenditures including baby-boomer’s increased demand for long term services and expanded entitlements for the disabled.
- Updated instructor’s resources include for each chapter: chapter synopsis and learning objectives, ideas worth grasping, key terms and concepts, discussion questions, and writing assignments.
