Product Overview
From Follett

NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE IN SOME COUNTRIES.;Title proper from title frame.;Includes bibliographical references. "Many Americans believe that their healthcare is second to none. Most patients, therefore, fail to appreciate the flaws and dangers present while receiving medical care . . . This book divulges secrets of the industry, which keep it focused on its own economic needs to the detriment of public health. The cost of American healthcare per person far exceeds other developed countries, yet it delivers life expectancies and infant mortalities that are ranked shamefully low among developed nations . . . A rich variety of authors . . . bring recommendations for changing healthcare delivery by taking an aspect of the healthcare system, identifying its shortcomings, and proposing ways to reduce harm plus correct the injustices"--Publisher.
