The Healthcare Apocalypse Print Book

The 21st Century brought in a transformation of the American healthcare system. While many other countries employ a national system of medical care, the US system is much more complex. In our form of healthcare exists capitalistic models, government models, third party intermediary models and hybrids of some or all of these. In my first book, “Inside Our Broken Healthcare System”, I explored how our current system fails and how patients and doctors are struggling in this system. Often, care is denied and doctors and patients are left frustrated. Out-of-pocket costs are soaring and healthcare is simply becoming unaffordable and unattainable for many people. In my second book, “The War on Doctors”, factors that are fighting healthcare workers are discussed. While many of these battles are directed at doctors, patients are the unwitting causalities in this war. Unless something changes, we are all headed to a crisis of epic proportion. The current book examines why doctors and patients need to take back medicine. Over the last several years, quality healthcare suffered at the hands of non-medically trained individuals driving healthcare policy and determining how to “reform” our healthcare system. The current climate in our system is bleak. Those holding the reins of medicine are politicians and business men. Huge profits are being made by high ranking CEO’s while tests and medications are increasing being denied for patients. We need to take back medicine from these forces that are in power. Patients need to be the center of all medical care, not the bottom line for insurance companies or agendas for politicians. Doctors need to be free to make medical decisions in collaboration with their patients, without intrusion from other parties. The 21st century is here. Medical care in the US should lead the world. No one compares to us in medical technology and innovation. Now, let’s make it affordable and available to all. Let’s work together to take back control of our own medical care.
