Synopsis

In this impassioned and often vitriolic book - a follow-up to the author's bestselling Bleeding Edge: The Business of Health Care in the New Century - U.S. health care industry expert J.D. Kleinke offers an unflinching look at our broken health care system. Throughout the book, Kleinke - who was once a vocal advocate of the managed health care system - explains what went wrong and attempts to answer such perplexing questions as: Who's in charge of the American health care system? How does managed care work ...or not work? Why have hospitals become so complex? What are the prospects for reform? Does the Internet change anything? Can we solve the growing problem of the uninsured?
