But he did not articulate the accompanying economic case. That case is presented here in an accessible way and extended to social care. A comprehensive understanding of ‘tried and tested’ means of financing health care is presented, alongside assessments of repeated and new approaches proposed in policy circles as quick fixes to funding shortfalls. This is tackled across four themes: the role of the private sector; making choices in the face of resource scarcity; workforce planning and remuneration; and preparation for pandemics. The emerging proposals carry a cost to the public purse, but must be weighed against the costs and unfairness of further disintegration. With a special focus on the UK and the NHS at a critical time for policy change, this essential book provides the blueprint for policymakers, clinical leadership and politicians needing to pay more attention to the economic issues underlying health and social care as they shape \n                    \n                    \u003cem\u003eIn Place of Fear 2.0.\u003c\/em\u003e\n                                    \n                \u003c\/p\u003e\n                            \n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783031867682\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBringing Health Economics Back into Public Policy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9783031867682","offer_id":54853103976773,"sku":"9783031867682","price":42.79,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/bbf190cd-31d6-47aa-8186-d8a8ae3ea955.jpg?v=1772170663","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/financing-health-and-social-care-von-cam-donaldson","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
