Patients as Policy Actors offers groundbreaking accounts of one of the health field''s most important developments of the last fifty years--the rise of more consciously patient-centered care and policymaking.
Patients as Policy Actors offers groundbreaking accounts of one of the health field''s most important developments of the last fifty years--the rise of more consciously patient-centered care and policymaking. The authors in this volume illustrate, from multiple disciplinary perspectives, the unexpected ways that patients can matter as both agents and objects of health care policy yet nonetheless too often remain silent, silenced, misrepresented, or ignored. The volume concludes with a unique epilogue outlining principles for more effectively integrating patient perspectives into a pluralistic conception of policy-making. With the recent enactment of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, patients'' and consumers'' roles in American health care require more than ever the careful analysis and attention exemplified by this innovative volume.
