520 |a The author has spent his career illustrating how geography is destiny when it comes to health care. Local medical opinion and the supply of medical resources are as important to the level of medical care provided as are levels of actual illness, or patient preference. In this book, using evidence distilled from his own experience at the forefront of practice variation research, he makes the case for delivery science as a laying foundation in the rebuilding of our health care system. This book is an introduction to the science of health care delivery, as well as a powerful argument for its relevance in shaping the future of our country. A resource for those involved in public health and health policy, this book uses the author's pioneering research to provide a framework for understanding the health care crisis; and outlines a roadmap for real change in the future. It is also a useful tool for anyone interested in understanding and forming their own opinion on the current debate. Written by a pioneer in the study of regional variations in health care delivery, it contains real-world examples of health care systems that get it right, to be used as models for future reform.
