In a clear, cohesive format, these books provide a concise survey of the basic structures and operations of the U.S. health system from its historical origins and resources, to its individual services, cost, and quality.
Although this book provides details on the existing structure of our healthcare system, it is a very shallow look at where we have been, where we are and where we are headed in healthcare here in this country. There is a lack of emphasis on modalities that are essential to true healthcare (not disease care) in this country that are barely mentioned such as naturopathic, aryuvedic and chinese medicine. We have the opportunity for greatness in this country, this book does not shed light on all the progress we actually are experiencing.
