Sinopsis
Understanding how health insurance costs are shared across workers, employers, and the state
Standards of Health Insurance analyzes how different countries organize and pay for sickness coverage. It examines the consequences of payment methods, including capitation and visitation models, and what they mean for workers, doctors, and the public purse. The book discusses constitutional and administrative questions and offers a framework for evaluating cost distribution and policy design.
- How costs are divided among employees, employers, and government subsidies
- How different systems affect care access, incentives, and administration
- Practical considerations for measuring costs, benefits, and fairness
- Examples from Europe and the United States to illustrate policy trade-offs
Ideal for readers of public health policy, labor economics, and social welfare history, this edition provides a clear lens on the economic and political forces shaping health insurance reform.

Excerpt from Standards of Health Insurance
The last consideration may not be altogether a fortunate one, because, as will appear to the reader of these pages, the scheme suggested on the Whole approaches the German system much more closely than the British one and the shortcomings in the workings of the British system have been frequently pointed out in this book. Health Insurance plans at present before the people of this country should not be judged too harshly by some experiences under the British precedent.

Excerpt from Standards of Health Insurance
The time appears ripe for a comprehensive study in English of European experience with sickness insurance, but the little book offered to the readers does not pretend to meet this need. Its purpose is a very much more modest one.
The movement for sickness or health insurance in this country has been growing so rapidly within the last few months that there appears to be a demand for a brief and popular, though scientifically sound, discussion of the essential principles underlying it and the various provisions which go to make a successful health insurance scheme; and without many excursions into the domains of statistics of history, this book endeavors to cover this particular field.
The subject-matter has largely appeared in the Journal of Political Economy for March, April, and May, 1915, but in that form has reached a very limited circle only. Some new additional material was added that had to be omitted from the original articles because of considerations of limited space.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. Beginning with the history and implementation of health insurance across Europe, this comprehensive book analyzes the key debates and principles involved in social health insurance. The author draws from the history of health insurance programs in various countriesâ"including the UK, Sweden, Denmark, and Germanyâ"to build a framework of standards that could be used to establish a successful program in the US. These standards, which include defining the extent of coverage, the role of the state, and the structure of the insurance system, are examined in depth. The author argues that the voluntary private health insurance model popular in the US is ineffective and has consistently failed to meet the needs of all Americans. Instead, the author advocates for a compulsory model that includes public subsidies to make the cost of insurance more affordable. Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the social, economic, and humanitarian benefits that such a program would bring to the US healthcare system and the American people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
