A startlingly insightful discussion of the problems facing American health care providers and consumers and their solutions

In Transforming Health Care, expert physician Dr. Morey Menacker explains how the United States can contain the world’s leading collection of superlative health care practitioners, technologies, treatments, research, education, and hospitals while simultaneously failing to provide care to many of its citizens. The author walks you through the past, present, and future of American health care, showing you how the United States got to its present state and offering practical solutions to improving access and affordability for millions of people.

In the book, you’ll find:

  • Insightful commentary about how to maintain the stellar quality of care found in the United States while expanding health care affordability and access
  • Discussions of how to reduce the cost and complexity of US health care
  • Explorations of the latest research and data as seen through the eyes of a physician who has spent their entire career working in the American medical system

A can’t-miss resource for US-based physicians and allied health care professionals, Transforming Health Care will also earn a place on the bookshelves of regulators, administrators, and lawmakers with an interest in the American health care establishment.
