AnnotationThis book explains the principles behind Elderly People's Integrated Care System (EPICS) and describes the achievements made in the demonstration projects. Different theoretical models of financing health and social care are examined, as is the relevance of On Lok in the United States (US) to systems in the United Kingdom (UK). A costing model for complex systems such as EPICS is provided. The final chapter summarises progress made and looks at how change can be achieved. [EPICS collection].
