NURS 686D Health Care Finance
This course will focus on the principles of public and private financing as they apply to the health care system. Case discussions will emphasize three basic financing models: private, public, and blended public/private mix. Case discussions will include problem-oriented discussions on subsidization for the poor and other vulnerable groups, global issues in health system financing, World Bank HIPC policies and the pro-poor agenda, and the impact of global health system shocks such as HIV/AIDS, global pandemics, and terrorism, on health financing systems. Optional content also will be included on managerial financing strategies.
