healthcare challenges in an ever-changing environment.
Using case studies and exercises, the book explains the key
principles, skills, and applications of public health; describes
how a healthcare administrator can use epidemiology, the
basic science of public health, to understand and address the
needs of communities; and then synthesizes this information to provide an introduction to population health
management. Key topics include the following:

This book provides an introduction to epidemiology and
explains how to use epidemiological concepts and tools to
improve decisions about the management of health services.
As health administration becomes more focused on population and community health, understanding the impact of
disease on populations in a service area is more important
than ever. This book blends theory and application by
presenting basic principles and then tying those concepts
to healthcare management with case studies, examples, and
exhibits. A new chapter on the importance of epidemiology
for both public health and healthcare leadership is included,
along with three application chapters that focus on the
health of populations with three specific diseases.
A major update to this edition includes the addition of
more than 60 new cases, bringing the total number of cases
in the book to more than 100. Three levels of cases provide
multiple options for coursework.
