Reconfiguring the Ecosystem for Sustainable Healthcare, Hardback Book

Reconfiguring the Ecosystem for Sustainable Healthcare Hardback

Edited by Susan Albers Mohrman, Abraham B. (Rami) (California Polytechnic State University, USA) Shani

Part of the Organizing for Sustainable Effectiveness series

Hardback

Description

Volume 4 extends the examination of "Organizing for Sustainable Healthcare" (Volume 2 of the same series, 2012).

It presents case studies and theoretical analyses that illustrate practical approaches to, and further the theoretical understanding of, the creation of a more sustainable healthcare.

Given economic, ecological, and population trends, the sustainability of healthcare delivery as it is organized today cannot be taken for granted.

Politicians, healthcare regulators and professionals worldwide are debating how to redesign today's delivery paradigms to deliver greater value to our societies while consuming fewer resources.

Even in countries with national health systems, healthcare organization has been fragmented, diminishing outcome effectiveness and wasting society's resources.

With complex value chains and dynamic interactions among various players, the reconfiguration of the healthcare system will require the reconciliation of different - often conflicting - goals, values, conceptions of social justice, work processes, knowledge bases, and business models.

The chapters in this volume build on multiple disciplines and varied approaches to address this complexity.
