Supramedicine - From Health Outcomes to Outcome Medicine
By Dr Eddie Price (Murray David Publishing: 1997)
Dr Eddie Price demonstrates in this book that the greatest advances
in the health of a nation will not come from new drugs or scientific
discoveries but from the way health care services are organised.
Dr Price is a graduate in Medicine from Sydney University, in health
administration from the University of New South Wales and a Fellow
of the Royal College of Medical Administrators. He has worked in
Australian inner-city ghettos, in large London teaching hospitals,
in the Arab refugee area of El Arish, and as a Kibbutz doctor on
Israel's northern border. He presently works in occupational medicine,
advising management on health and safety matters. He has been a
consultant to the Australian Minister of Health and a director of
the Board of WorkCover of New South Wales. His wide-ranging experience
has convinced him of the need to improve health services worldwide.
