A marchandisation et la managérialisation des soins ne cessent de questionner et d'inquiéter à la fois les acteurs au coeur du système de soins, tels que les professionnels de santé, mais aussi les gestionnaires. Ces derniers se saisissent progressivement des difficultés issues de transformations rapides dans le secteur de la santé sous couvert d'efficience, de performance et de rationalisation.00Cet ouvrage collectif propose un regard critique sur la marchandisation et la managérialisation des soins. À cet effet, les contributeurs examinent de manière empirique et théorique la façon dont se transforme ± l'imaginaire socio-politique ? autour de la santé, pour reprendre les termes de Frédéric Pierru en préface. Alors que la notion de bien commun ou social en santé a longtemps dominé, c'est celle de la responsabilisation du patient-consommateur par exemple qui règne aujourd'hui. Cette évolution s'accompagne du développement d'outils pour mieux ± gérer ? le système de soins.00L'ouvrage est structuré en quatre parties. La première est consacrée à une réflexion théorique sur les enjeux de consommation et de marché dans la santé. La deuxième partie, en se basant sur de nombreuses données empiriques, retrace les expériences et les rôles des patients dans ce système de soins, à qui l'on demande d'être plus autonomes et actifs. À travers des cas d'étude, la troisième partie porte sur la mise en place de leviers pour mieux accompagner les patients mais aussi développer la managérialisation des soins. La dernière partie offre une ouverture réflexive sur les enjeux et limites de ces processus de managérialisation et de marchandisation.

Health economics has become an established field of enquiry over recent years and is now an important contributor to normative health policy, and decisions concerning the allocation of resources and the quality of healthcare provision across the world.

Medical Economics, written by two physicians who are also qualified economists, introduces readers to the core economic considerations in healthcare provision and management. Addressing concerns that are relevant to both the individual and to public health, the authors draw on a wider range of economic tools and analytical frameworks than typically offered by standard textbooks. Combining thought experiments with real-world examples they illustrate the healthcare challenges facing today's policy-makers.

The book is aimed specifically at courses in medicine, public health, and healthcare management and administration, but also at economists looking for a broader perspective on healthcare systems, including healthcare financing, markets, the role of the state and other macroeconomic considerations, evaluation methods, healthcare technology, paying for medical care, health insurance and ethical issues.

In this chapter I provide a critical examination of different forms of medical diagrams in Greek manuscripts, which are related to works by both ancient Greek and Byzantine medical authors. Due to the large number of surviving Greek medical codices and the fact that they have for the most part been little studied, my examination cannot be exhaustive. It focuses instead on representative examples, mostly derived from my personal consultation of medical manuscripts in various libraries.

"Healthcare continues to be one of the defining political issues in the US. Though many progressives argue for an overhaul of the current system based on ethical or humanitarian principles, this important book offers an economic rationale for providing healthcare for all. This is an incisive, important contribution to a topic that continues to shape American political discourse and will be of interest to scholars and professionals engaged in this area as well as politicians and the public in general"--

"This book is an ethnography of practices of health and care in post-socialist Lithuania. It focuses on how informal payments - "little white envelopes" - are prevailed in public health care in the times of economic shortages during socialism and during the fundamental transformations to capitalism despite multiple efforts to curtail them."--
