520    Overview:  This best-selling text offers a concise and 
       balanced introduction to the domestic health care system, 
       entirely updated to reflect changes presented by the 
       health care reform bill of 2010 and the subsequent 
       alterations to health care services, delivery, and 
       financing.  Like its predecessors, the Seventh Edition of 
       Introduction to the US Health Care System provides an 
       accessible overview of the basic components of the system:
       health care personnel, hospitals and other institutions, 
       the federal government, financing and payment mechanisms, 
       and managed care.  The text has been reorganized to 
       provide an easier flow of information and a new chapter on
       health care system trends and consequences.  All students 
       of health care administration and policy, as well as 
       practicing health professionals, who seek a clear and 
       concise overview of our health care system, will find it 
       useful.  Key Features of the Updated Edition:  Reflects 
       political and medical changes resulting from the 2010 
       health care reform bill; Reorganized for improved flow and
       clarity of information; Includes new chapter on health 
       care system trends and consequences.
