		<description>This course focuses on policy and management issues that affect all health care practitioners:
- How is the health care system organized?  
- Who pays the health care bill?  
- Why have efforts to enact national health insurance failed?  
- What are the key issues on the nation’s long-term care policy agenda?  
- What role does government now play in the US health care system (and how do different levels of government share these tasks)?  
- How can government encourage good quality care?
