About this ebook
With rapidly advancing technology and the ongoing discussion of health care reform post-Affordable Care Act, today’s healthcare administrators require a strong foundation in practice-based ethics to confront the challenges of the current health care landscape. Ethics in Health Administration: A Practical Approach for Decision Makers, Fourth Edition focuses on the application of ethics to the critical issues faced by today's healthcare administrators. After establishing a foundation in theory and principles, the text encourages students to apply ethics to areas of change, regulation, technology and fiscal responsibility in healthcare. Thoroughly updated and more reader-friendly, the Fourth Edition has been significantly revised to include new cases, updated content, and additional resources to engage students while challenging them to think critically. New cases in every chapter based on real-world events help to emphasize chapter content and encourage students to apply ethics to realistic situations. A new chapter on the Ethics in the Epoch of Change stresses major changes in healthcare, including the digital revolution, population health, ethics temptations and ethic resilience. New coverage of emerging senior service markets and functional medicine are addressed in Chapter 6. Every chapter now includes ethics application questions, summary statements, websites, and additional resources to further enhance learning. © 2020 | 302 pages
