Author: Leiyu Shi

Leiyu Shi is a professor of health policy and management at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, where he directs the Johns Hopkins Primary Care Policy Center. His research concentrates on primary care, access, health equity, and the organization of health services. Delivering Health Care In America presents the United States health system through its historical foundations, financing, workforce, delivery structures, and policy debates. The cited eighth-edition library record identifies the fuller title as Delivering Health Care in America: A Systems Approach and credits Douglas A. Singh as coauthor. Jones & Bartlett Learning has carried the textbook through multiple editions, reflecting its continuing use in health administration and public health education. Shi's academic work gives the volume a policy-centered framework for understanding how institutions and incentives shape patient access and system performance.
