The third volume discusses topics such as impact-driven disaster response in a healthcare setting, the Massachusetts healthcare insurance plan, market dynamics and financing strategies in the development of medical technologies, a patient's perspective on improving systems of care, the roles of physicians and business executives in moving ideas from the laboratory to the marketplace, and the cost of end-of-life care
