Terry J. Boychuk, Books, Health and Well Being, The Making and Meaning of Hospital Policy in the United States and Canada, This comparison of American and Canadian health care takes a fresh and analytical approach to the topic by systematically specifying the historical dynamics that gave rise to such radically different systems of health insurance in the first instance. Terry Boychuk takes us beyond the familiar policy discourse focusing on the benefits and costs of universal health insurance to a greater understanding of how these systems developed.The Making and Meaning of Hospital Policy in the United States and Canada endeavors to account for why Canada adopted national health insurance and why the United States did not. The findings illustrate the historical primacy of hospital politics and policy in the making of national health policy in North America. The study also establishes the first comparative history of hospital development and hospital policy in the United States and Canada from colonial times to the formation of modern social insurance programs.This book will appeal to those interested in health policy making, social policy, and American and Canadian political history. Its accessible style recommends it for use in undergraduate and graduate courses.Terry Boychuk is Assistant Professor, Macalester College.

Why did affording universal access to hospital and medical care become the surpassing motive of national health reform in Canada during the postwar era? Why did American efforts to convert health care financing to the medium of insurance culminate in private health plans for the working population and government-funded programs for old-age pensioners and welfare recipients, while stranding millions of Americans from insurance of either kind?This comparative study offers an account of why hospital reforms became a driving force behind the defeat of national health insurance in the United States and by contrast, provided the opening wedge for universal health insurance in Canada. This book will appeal to students of health policy, social policy, and American and Canadian political history.
