Synopsis

Are you tired of paying more for healthcare—and getting less in return?

This gripping and eye-opening book exposes the truth behind America’s broken healthcare system. Written by Chris Deacon, a nationally recognized healthcare reformer and former head of one of the largest public health plans in the country, The Great American Healthcare Heist pulls back the curtain on the billion-dollar deals, corporate greed, and policy failures that drive up costs for patients, families, and taxpayers.

Drawing from firsthand experience inside state government and behind closed doors with insurers, hospitals, and pharmacy benefit managers, Deacon reveals how healthcare became a profit engine rigged against the very people it’s supposed to serve. With sharp analysis, real-world case studies, and powerful storytelling, this book connects the dots between rising premiums, surprise medical bills, and the industry’s chokehold on reform.

Whether you're an employer struggling with insurance costs, a policymaker searching for answers, or just an American fed up with the status quo, this book will challenge what you think you know—and arm you with a clearer path forward.

Part exposé, part call to action, this is not a dry policy manual. It’s a bold demand for change.

Perfect for readers of: An American Sickness, The Price We Pay, Unaccountable, and Empire of Pain.
