This book is designed to be a comprehensive guide to how health insurance is implemented in the United States, and explains in detail how these policies are written and how they perform. Written primarily for students of health care policy and management, Morrisey (U. of Alabama, Birmingham) covers all of the basics of health insurance, including the history of these policies, Medicaid and Medicare, adverse selection and moral hazard, health savings accounts and the relationship between employees and employers in respect to these programs.
