Résumé : | This volume seeks to unravel these and other paradoxes that sit at the heart of what proponents of the SHI model view as not just a healthcare system but rather 'a way of life'. Drawing on a wide variety of expert as well as statistical resources, the book systematically examines the logic, history, structure and performance of seven SHI systems in western Europe - Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Switzerland - as well as the similarly configured SHI system in Israel. In doing so, it presents SHI systems in a new light, exploring commonalities and disparities between and among these systems. The book also probes a number of key policy issues that can be expected to influence decision-making in SHI countries over the next period of years. Its contribution will be gauged by the degree to which the policy debate about the future of SHI systems in Europe moves beyond individual country arrangements to focus on the long-term prospects for this model in Europe as a whole. |
