Healthcare is inextricably bound to productivity, efficiency, and economic development. Although many methods for analyzing productivity and efficiency have been extensively covered, relatively little focus has been placed on how those methods can be applied to health care in a coherent and comprehensive manner. The Cambridge Handbook of Healthcare outlines current foundations and states of the art on which future research can build. It brings together experts in this growing field to cover three key sources and aspects of human welfare – productivity, efficiency, and healthcare. Beginning with academic focused chapters, this book bridges and provides outreach to the practice and regulation of the health care industry and includes academic and regulatory perspectives, including overviews of major evidence from international empirical applications. Each chapter is dedicated to a particular topic and delivered by international experts on that topic.
