Perspectives in Health Care in the <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">University</st1:PlaceType>

w:st="on">Management</st1:PlaceName></st1:place>. It is in a somewhat unusual
format, comprising six intensive three-hour evening sessions. I am searching
for documentaries, newscasts and other A-V materials that would be useful for
dramatizing (a) the differences between rich and poor countries in the issues
facing health systems, and (b) the processes that particular societies use to
make decisions about health care resource allocation. All leads are welcome,
please reply off-list if you prefer.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
