If this book is only about the US health service, why doesn’t the title say so? There are quite a few other countries out there in the world, and almost all of them have health services!

Using this text for a distance learning course. Seems to provide a good introduction to the subjects of Health Services. Written on a level I can understand, not being a medical person, but a hospital support person.

Williams and Torrens have developed one of the best introductory texts on the US health system. The book has clear learning objectives, useful references, and helpful diagrams. The American health system is farily and accurately described, warts and all.

Amazon ordering and shipping was awesome, speedy and beyond my expectations of on-line ordering. I am going to order from this site if the book is economically less than my university’s bookstore.
I placed my order on a Monday late evening, received my book within 3-4 business days of the same week.
Thanks Amazon and its affiliates for providing great customer support, efficiency, and reliance.
