Abstract: This textbook offers a comprehensive overview of the U.S. health care system, tracing its historical roots and examining how care is delivered and financed, especially for older adults and individuals with disabilities. It delves into key topics such as social determinants of health, social epidemiology, and the impact of racial inequities on health outcomes. The content is framed through major social justice theories, including Rawlsian, Marxist, Indigenous, and Black feminist perspectives. Contemporary issues like the COVID-19 pandemic and evolving reproductive health policies are used to ground these concepts in real-world application.
