Covering a wide range of issues, the 22 cases included in Case Studies in Canadian Health Policy and Management constitute an exceptional resource for bringing real-life policy questions into the classroom.
Based on actual events, the cases were developed with input from students in the course, most of whom were mid-career professionals with strong field experience and were extensively tested in Raisa B. Deber’s graduate and undergraduate case studies courses at the University of Toronto. Each case features both a substantive health policy issue and key concepts and methods appropriate to examining public policy, public health, and health care management issues. In each case, the book provides a summary of the case and the related policy issues, a description of events, suggested questions for discussion, supporting information, and lists works cited and further reading. An accompanying volume of teaching notes helps guide how the case can be taught. The book also includes a substantial introductory chapter which provides a framework and summary of key policy concepts and indicates which of these can be used in which cases.
Featuring updated and new cases, the third edition of this formative textbook is suitable for graduate and undergraduate classrooms across disciplines and fields.
Raisa B. Deber is a professor emeritus at the Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation, University of Toronto and has received many awards for her contributions to health policy. Valerie Rackow is a career health care administrator and adjunct professor at the University of Toronto with expertise in addictions and mental health, accountability and health care policy.
