America's Children: Health Insurance and Access to Care by Margaret Edmunds,
America's Children: Health Insurance and Access to Care by Margaret Edmunds,
Today, more than 11 million American children lack health insurance and the number increases every year. America's Children is a comprehensive, easy-to-read analysis of the relationship between health insurance and access to care. The book addresses three broad questions: How is children's health care currently financed? Does insurance equal access to care? How should the nation address the health needs of this vulnerable population? Topics explored include: -- The changing role of Medicaid under managed care. -- State-initiated and private sector children's insurance programs. -- Specific effects of insurance status on the care children receive. -- The impact of chronic medical conditions and special health care needs. -- The status of "safety net" health providers: community health centers, children's hospitals, school-based health centers, and others. -- Private-sector, employer-based health insurance: the changing patterns of coverage and tax policy options to increase coverage.



European Health Insurance Card - The European Health Insurance Card (or EHIC) allows citizens of the EEA countries and Switzerland to receive emergency medical treatment in another member state for free or at a reduced cost. It is not for any pre-existing medical condition, but only for accidents and emergencies.

Social health insurance - Broadly speaking, health care systems across the world are funded in three different ways: by private contributions, social health insurance contributions or taxes. Social health insurance systems are characterized by the presence of sickness funds which usually receive a proportional contribution of their members' wages.

Ontario Health Insurance Plan - The Ontario Hospital Insurance Plan (OHIP) is the government-run health plan for the Canadian province of Ontario. More recently it has been referred to as the Ontario Health Insurance Plan, but the official name uses the term Hospital rather than Health due to legal questions related to the coverage of prescription drugs.

State Children's Health Insurance Program - The State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) is a national program in the United States designed for families who earn too much money to qualify for Medicaid, yet cannot afford to buy private insurance. The program was created to address the growing problem of children in the United States without health insurance.
