Governance Ethics in Healthcare Organizations cover

This book offers a structured analysis of ethical governance in healthcare, essential for professionals and students in the field, including insights on oversight and patient care.

Drawing on the findings of a series of empirical studies conducted with boards of directors and CEOs across the United States, Governance Ethics in Healthcare Organizations presents a new framework for understanding ethical healthcare governance. This pioneering work develops a structured analysis that addresses the complex ethical challenges faced by healthcare organizations today. The authors provide insights that are both practical and theoretically grounded, ensuring that the content resonates with professionals in the field.

The book begins by outlining a clear framework for ethical analysis, focusing on fundamental aspects of ethics: identity, function, and action. It then examines how this paradigm applies to various dimensions of healthcare governance, including clinical, organizational, and professional ethics. By doing so, Governance Ethics in Healthcare Organizations equips readers with the tools needed to navigate the intricate landscape of healthcare management and decision-making.

Furthermore, the text delves into critical areas essential for effective governance, such as oversight structures for trustees and executives, community benefits, patient care, and safety. It also addresses the complexities of collaborative arrangements that may present conflicts of interest. This book is a vital resource for anyone interested in healthcare management, corporate governance, and ethics, including academics, students, and practitioners seeking to enhance their understanding of ethical governance in healthcare settings.
