This study shows the inter-relationships of public health policy, behavior, attitude, knowledge of the general public and how their outcomes can affect health and safety, policy formulation, enactment, implementation, policy evaluation and its revision or repeal. Observational and interview surveys of the driving public were conducted over an eighteen month period (1987-1989) in Kansas. Results showed major differences in the public's knowledge, attitudes, and behavior toward the new mandatory seatbelt law across different geographic locations of metropolitan, urban and suburban areas. The new law had the support of more than half of those interviewed. The public's knowledge and attitude on the seatbelt use and law were far from being ideal. Much work is needed to convince about 27% of the driving public who declared they never use their seatbelts and would ignore any law/policy that would force them to comply.","PeriodicalId":73764,"journal":{"name":"Journal of health & social policy","volume":"3 2 1","pages":"117-35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1300/J045V03N02_07","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66306022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Universal Medical Savings Accounts (UMSAs) are proposed. UMSAs are defined-contribution vouchers coupled with medical savings accounts. The proposal includes significant equity protections for those with low income/wealth, including balance billing limits and stop-loss protections, together with subsidies for risk-adjustment. The policy would control costs while promoting quality, accessible, and affordable health care. UMSAs provide new behavioral incentives, both for cost-conscious health care decision-making and for healthy lifestyle choices.","PeriodicalId":73764,"journal":{"name":"Journal of health & social policy","volume":"81 1","pages":"75-90"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1300/J045V13N04_05","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66307191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In part, this has been a response to soaring healthcare costs, countering them with diminished reimbursements. To decrease labor costs and survive in an increasingly competitive and market-driven healthcare environment, hospitals downsized and laid off nursing staff. Patient care and safety has concomitantly suffered. These efforts severely challenged nurses' status. Radicalized rank and file members of the Massachusetts Nurses Association mobilized against the association leadership's weak efforts to protect nurses' social and economic interests and the deteriorating quality of care. They transformed an association whose main focus was supporting nursing's professional image to one which became an activist labor union of professional workers. The history of this often contentious transformation is presented here within the context of these healthcare system changes.

Focus groups among elderly Samoan, Native Hawaiian, and Chamorro residents of southern California in 2002 found ethnic variation in such characteristics as expectations of publicly financed health care and in the willingness to discuss alternative sources of help with clinicians. These variations appear influenced by the colonial health care experience of these U.S. territories and, in the case of Samoan women, in distinctive perceptions of the role of prayer and traditional healing methods in care.
