Figure I depicts a set of inter-sectoral financial flows that represent central features of the organization and financing of health care systems. But It is primarily a set of accounting relationships, a gross anatomical description that provides no “physiology” explaining how the various components interact, or how those interactions might change in response to anatomical changes.  What difference does it make, in terms of patterns of service delivery and cost, of distribution of burdens and benefits among the population, or of population health status, if the mixes of financing and funding flows in Figure 1 are re-arranged?  These questions, sometimes overt, often covert, are everywhere at the heart of debates over health policy.

And Gender

An increasing number of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are working with individuals who are transgender (TG) and gender diverse people. This trend likely reflects a growing number of TG and gender diverse patients seeking treatment. Whilst voice and communication outcomes can be highly satisfying for both the client and the therapist, there can be many challenges associated with service delivery to the transgender population. This article will discuss the challenges for SLPs, both in public state-funded health care systems, and clinicians in private practice. This discussion is informed by my 15 years of clinical experience in both systems and by recent developments in the field of TG voice and communication work.

What is the perception of Turkish migrants in elderly care? The increasing number of elder migrants within the German and Austrian population is causing the challenge of including them in an adequate (culturally sensitive) way into the German/Austrian health care system. Here I introduce the perception of elder Turkish migrants within the predominant paradigm of intercultural opening of health care in Germany as well as within the concept of diversity management of health care in Vienna (Austria). The qualitative investigation follows a field research in different German and Austrian cities within the last four years and an analysis based on the Grounded Theory Methodology. The meaning of intercultural opening on the one hand, and diversity management on the other hand with respect to elderly care will be evaluated. Whereas the intercultural opening directly demands a reduction of barriers to access institutional elderly care the concept of diversity is hardly successful in the inclusion of migrants into elderly care assistance – concerning both, migrants as care-givers and migrants as care-receivers. Despite the similarities between the health care systems of Germany and Austria there are decisive differences in the perception and inclusion of migrants in elderly care that is largely based on an 'individual care' concept of the responsible institutions. Finally, this investigation demonstrates how elderly care in Germany and Austria prepares to encounter the demand of 'individual care' in a diverse society.
