Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "The Public's Investment in Hospitals" is a seminal study that explores the economic and social foundations of medical facilities in the early 20th century. Written by C. Rufus Rorem, a pioneer in health economics, this work provides a comprehensive analysis of the capital investment required to build and sustain hospital infrastructure. Rorem examines how hospitals, though often organized as private or charitable entities, represent a substantial public asset funded by community resources and philanthropy.The book delves into the complex financial structures of the era, offering detailed insights into the valuation of hospital property, the costs of medical equipment, and the relationship between community wealth and the availability of healthcare. Rorem argues for a more systematic and transparent approach to hospital finance, advocating for a model that recognizes the hospital as a vital public utility. By framing medical care through the lens of capital investment and social responsibility, this text serves as a foundational document in the history of healthcare administration.Ideal for historians, health policy experts, and students of medical economics, "The Public's Investment in Hospitals" offers a rigorous look at the transition of hospitals from charitable refuges to essential pillars of modern public health. Its observations on the necessity of community-based financial support continue to resonate in contemporary discussions about healthcare accessibility and sustainability.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
