Assignment: International and Comparative Health Policy- Opportunities and Lessons for the United States
Module- Case
Overview
Countries around the world take different approaches to addressing health and health care for their citizens. While developing countries have much different needs than industrialized countries, comparing nations that fall into like categories can provide valuable insight into how to improve health care for a populace. In 2010, policy analysts at the Commonwealth Fund began a comparative analysis of the United States health care with other high-income countries. Their 4th iteration of this study was published in 2021, entitled Mirror, Mirror 2021: Reflecting Poorly - Health care in the U.S. compared to other high- income countries. Five domains were examined in their study: access to care, care process, administrative efficiency, equity, and health care outcomes.
