Mediation der Zukunft für Paare und Familien (essentials)
by Thomas SpörerDer status quo der Mediation in Deutschland charakterisiert einen Zustand, der dieser Konfliktbearbeitungsform, gemessen am Bedarf, immer noch eine marginale Rolle zuschreibt. Die Gegenüberstellung einer juristischen Bearbeitung und ihrem non-juristischen Gegenpart unterstreicht zwar die Differenzen in der Vorgehensweise, blendet aber eine vorherrschende Gemeinsamkeit der beiden Systeme aus, die erst deutlich wird, wenn die Sicht darauf aus dem Blickwinkel der Betroffenen fällt. Dieser Beitrag betrachtet speziell Mediation aus der Bedürfnislage der Klientel heraus und fragt danach, wie sich diese Methode verändern muss, wenn sie den Bedürfnissen ihre Betroffenen gerecht werden möchte.
Mediation durch Einzelcoaching für Paare und Familien (essentials)
by Thomas SpörerEin Lehrsatz der Familienmediation betont die Fähigkeit des Individuums zu einer Lösungsfindung bezügl. der eigenen Angelegenheiten. Diese setzen sich zusammen aus eigenen Erfahrungen, Einschätzungen, Hoffnungen, Befürchtungen wie auch zukünftigen Aussichten. Subjektive Bedürfnisse sind somit in Einzelgesprächen bestmöglich recherchierbar und bearbeitbar. Von daher braucht Mediation außer dem Dreiergespräch speziell auch Elemente des Einzelcoachings zur Erarbeitung von einigungsrelevanten Gesprächsanteilen. Dieser Band unterstreicht die Bedeutung von Coachingelementen in der Mediation und beleuchtet außerdem die Zukunftsgestaltung als integralen Bestandteil der Mediationsarbeit über das rechtswirksame Scheidungsurteil hinaus.

Mediation for Managers: Resolving Conflict and Rebuilding Relationships at Work
by Katherine Graham John CrawleyIn recent years mediation has become an increasingly popular approach and powerful technique and has been used successfully in such areas as commercial disputes and customer complaints-handling. Here, for the first time, is an accessible and practical book on mediation at work and in the workplace itself. Packed with real-life examples and cases, it focuses on mediation's positive way of looking at conflict, how it injects a new dimension into people's "conflict zone", and outlines the qualities needed to be a mediating manager. Mediating managers become beacons of positive energy perceived as people capable of holding things together when others are "losing it". They are able to do this because they are enablers, not judge and jury, catalysts not fixers, encouragers not enforcers. Mapping out the overall steps of the mediation process, what mediating managers' core tasks are at each stage, the opportunities offered to those involved, and illustrating different key moments of effectively resolved workplace disputes, the book demonstrates how transferable mediation skills are and how they can be used in a wide range of workplace settings.

Mediation: A Concept for Information and Communication Sciences
by Jacqueline DeschampsMediation is a very old practice that has been reborn to meet the needs of the contemporary world. It is thus increasingly present in today's societies.

Mediation: A Concept for Information and Communication Sciences inaugurates this set through its contribution to a state of the art of the theory and concepts used by the ICS community. It is addressed to teachers, researchers and students, as well as information professionals wishing to think about their daily practice.

Mediators in the Leading Role - Understanding and Actively Managing Mediation
by Andrea Hartmann-PiraudeauThis book is intended for readers interested in mediation, negotiation, and other methods of conflict resolution. The use of mediation is widespread, but research into its impact is still in its infancy. If mediation is a way of resolving conflicts of our time, then mediators have a responsibility: on a small scale, in resolving acute conflicts, and on a large scale, in shaping and establishing a new form of social dialogue. They should know what they are doing. They should know which interventions to use and when, and what effect they have. With its research results, this book helps to strengthen the relevant field of mediation through scientific findings and to derive recommendations for action for mediators from the results.This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Mediatoren in der Hauptrolle – Mediation verstehen und aktiv steuern by Andrea Hartmann-Piraudeau, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.
Medicaid Politics and Policy
by David G. SmithThe story of Medicaid comes alive for readers in this strong narrative, including detailed accounts of important policy changes and extensive use of interviews. A central theme of the book is that Medicaid is a "weak entitlement," one less established or effectively defended than Medicare or Social Security, but more secure than welfare or food stamps.In their analysis, the authors argue that the future of Medicaid is sound. It has the flexibility to be adapted by states as well as to allow for policy innovation. At the same time, the program lacks an effective mechanism for overall reform. They note Medicaid has become a source of perennial political controversy as it has grown to become the largest health insurance system in the country.The book's dual emphasis on politics and policy is important in making the arcane Medicaid program accessible to readersand in distinguishing policy grounded in analysis from partisan ideology. This second edition features a new preface, three new chapters accounting for the changes to the Affordable Care Act, and an updated glossary.

Medical Clinics and Practices: Understanding How They Work and Why
by Roger GruneisenA hospital can be a private or public sector building where patients are admitted for acute treatment. On the other hand, a clinic is a hub of healthcare activity and a place where care providers interact with patients, prescribe medicine, and provide care instructions on what to do after leaving the clinic. Both sites have different and specific operational management needs and requirements. This book serves as a guide to new consultants, management engineers, administrators, and sales professionals seeking to assess simple clinics or medical practice operations. In addition to providing important information about the various aspects of managing a clinic or medical practice, each chapter explains common operating practices seen today and gives some indication of good or better practices. To organize the chapter flow, the chapters are simplified into the typical flow of how a patient moves through the system from patient access to registration to discharge and is presented in a ‘Fact Finder’ format. In this format, the author answers important questions: What is a care team? What kind of physical space does the practice need? What about equipment and technology needs? Finally, the author concludes with key infrastructure concepts, such as leadership and management systems, integration into larger systems, and key measurements. All topics important to those working in or servicing the ambulatory market.

Medical Decision Making
by Stefan Felder Thomas MayrhoferThis textbook offers a comprehensive theory of medical decision making under uncertainty, combining informative test theory with the expected utility hypothesis. The book shows how the parameters of Bayes' theorem can be combined with a value function of health states to arrive at informed test and treatment decisions. The authors distinguish between risk neutral, risk averse and prudent decision makers and demonstrate the effects of risk preferences on physicians' decisions. They analyze individual tests, multiple tests and endogenous tests where the test result is determined by the decision maker. Finally, the topic is examined in the context of health economics by introducing a trade-off between enjoying health and consuming other goods, so that the extent of treatment and thus the potential improvement in the patient's health become endogenous.
Medical Decision Making: A Health Economic Primer
by Stefan Felder Thomas MayrhoferThis textbook offers a comprehensive analysis of medical decision-making under uncertainty by combining test information theory with expected utility theory. The authors show how the parameters of Bayes’ theorem can be combined with a value function of health states in order to arrive at informed test and treatment decisions in the face of diagnostic and therapeutic risks. Distinguishing between risk-neutral, risk-averse, and prudent decision-makers, they demonstrate the effects of risk preferences on medical decisions. Furthermore, they analyze individual and multiple tests as well as diagnostic models in which the decision-maker chooses the test outcome. The consequences of test and treatment decisions for the patient are encompassed by quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and the standard economic model, which applies the willingness to pay for health approach. Lastly, non-expected utility models of choice under risk and uncertainty are presented. Although these models can explain some of the test and treatment decisions observed, they are less suitable for normative analyses aimed at providing guidance on medical decision-making. This third edition provides extensively revised versions of all chapters and reflects recent innovations in medical decision-making such as decision curve analysis. New chapters focus on the health economics of and revealed preferences in medical decisions. The book is intended for students of (health) economics and medicine as well as for medical decision-makers and physicians dealing with uncertainty in their test and treatment decisions.
