Healthcare Outcomes Management: Strategies for Planning and Evaluation explores the critical assessment of healthcare outcomes management and planning using the "biopsychosocial approach" -- an integrated approach to managing patients within the healthcare delivery system that is based on principles of science and scientific inquiry. The book focuses on the processes of healthcare evaluation, which seek to analyze healthcare interventions available to healthcare consumers in terms of four principle dimensions: effectiveness, efficiency, humanity, and equity. Careful attention to the basic principles of epidemiology, healthcare economics, medical ethics, population medicine, medical informatics and environmental health have also been included in the book to increase the reader''s appreciation for the applied medical sciences and their applications to the delivery of healthcare services at the point of care. This text is ideal for graduate courses in Health Care Outcomes Management.
