Very useful class and the book covered topics well. Of all things I think the indexing could have been done better. Some topics that I would think to be standard points were missing and occasionally a reference point was off by a page. Overall read well and covered the concepts of health care finance well.

Not bad for a text book. Easy to understand and good examples
