Abstract:
Given the many new advances in technology as well as the roll out of the Affordable Care Act, today's healthcare administrators require a strong foundation in practice-based ethics to confront the challenges of the current healthcare landscape. This edition translates the principles and practice of ethics into usable information for application to the real world of healthcare administration and the critical issues faced by today's healthcare administrators. It addresses the many new ethical challenges administrators will face, in light of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Careful attention is given to the ACA concept of patient-centered care through safety and quality standards. Fictional cases based on real-world events help to emphasize chapter content and create interest for the learner. -- Edited summary from book.
