Customer Reviews

Health Care Adminstration

Received item in excellent condition and saved at least 40% of price at school bookstore. Was a used item but can not tell by condition of book. Received in a timely manner.

Legal Aspects of Health Care Administration

This book has been very useful in obtaining a general overview of key words and history. The book was very easy to read and understand. There are some parts of the text that my instructor (lawyer) did not agree with. I am working toward a Masters and I met a student going for her associates that was using the same book. I think that says a lot for the author and the knowledge he has to share.

like new

Review of Law in Medicine

Pozgar's book is organized by legal topic and cites relevant case law in all instances. It is an excellent overview of American law as it applies to the health care practitioner or organization. He has taken a topic that it difficult to communicate and made it very enjoyable reading. Students will find it much easier reading than most graduate level texts.

Great information for those new to health care law.

This book was very useful to me. I am a health information management student planning to enter a graduate health administration program. I took the class and this particular book was the text. Our instructor is a lawyer and runs risk management at our university hospital. The text further explained basic legal priciples and related them to health care. The text is easy to read and gives several references to actual documents.
