Handbook For Healthcare Reform‪:‬

The notion of a "public Health insurance option" is not new. The book "Handbook for Healthcare Reform: Foundation and Framework" provides a look at foreign healthcare systems' experience with very similar models. This book also reviews the healthcare-related policies that shape several foreign healthcare systems. What may surprise many Americans is that foreign nations increasingly rely on capitalistic incentives to attain their healthcare goals. Their healthcare systems are becoming increasingly less socialized than many might assume. Certain nations have already developed the public health insurance option havoing approached the the problem from the opposite end of the spectrum - they added a private health insurance industry to an existing socialized healthcare system - and found it amazingly successful.
