Management Analysis of Approaches for Expanding Access to Health Care
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
The National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) and the National Academy of Social Insurance (NASI) are undertaking an analysis of the management and administrative issues that arise in expanding health coverage. The project will identify the core administrative functions that need to be performed in assuring access to health coverage, describe how these functions are performed at present and under proposed alternatives, draw lessons from experience in the U.S. and abroad, and assess suggested administrative and management approaches designed to facilitate the improvement or expansion of health care coverage. Approaches will be evaluated in terms of their economy, effectiveness, equity, innovation and responsiveness, and legitimacy.
