An American Sickness pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

At a moment of drastic political upheaval, a shocking investigation into the dangerous, expensive, and dysfunctional American healthcare system, as well as solutions to its myriad of problems

In these troubled times, perhaps no institution has unraveled more quickly and more completely than American medicine. In only a few decades, the medical system has been overrun by organizations seeking to exploit for profit the trust that vulnerable and sick Americans place in their healthcare. Our politicians have proven themselves either unwilling or incapable of reining in the increasingly outrageous costs faced by patients, and market-based solutions only seem to funnel larger and larger sums of our money into the hands of corporations. Impossibly high insurance premiums and inexplicably large bills have become facts of life; fatalism has set in. Very quickly Americans have been made to accept paying more for less. How did things get so bad so fast?

Breaking down this monolithic business into the individual industries—the hospitals, doctors, insurance companies, and drug manufacturers—that together constitute our healthcare system, Rosenthal exposes the recent evolution of American medicine as never before. How did healthcare, the caring endeavor, become healthcare, the highly profitable industry? Hospital systems, which are managed by business executives, behave like predatory lenders, hounding patients and seizing their homes. Research charities are in bed with big pharmaceutical companies, which surreptitiously profit from the donations made by working people. Patients receive bills in code, from entrepreneurial doctors they never even saw.

The system is in tatters, but we can fight back. Dr. Elisabeth Rosenthal doesn't just explain the symptoms, she diagnoses and treats the disease itself. In clear and practical terms, she spells out exactly how to decode medical doublespeak, avoid the pitfalls of the pharmaceuticals racket, and get the care you and your family deserve. She takes you inside the doctor-patient relationship and to hospital C-suites, explaining step-by-step the workings of a system badly lacking transparency. This is about what we can do, as individual patients, both to navigate the maze that is American healthcare and also to demand far-reaching reform. An American Sickness is the frontline defense against a healthcare system that no longer has our well-being at heart.

An American Sickness pdf epub mobi 讀後感

評分

書名叫做《美國病》,作者本身是醫學齣身,把整本書寫成瞭一份H&P,從“主訴:極度昂貴的醫療保健並未可靠地産齣高質量結果。”(超過二十個字瞭!)起,就讓人想起被手抄大病史支配的恐懼。這本書很好讀,作者有些學術geek的可愛,開篇羅列瞭十條非正常醫療市場裏的經濟規...  

評分

利益集團從來不是新鮮的事物,本書中描寫的美國醫療體係也不例外,法律法規上每一個小小的漏洞都會被其利用來鞏固自身的利益,但令人吃驚的是作為受害者的患者群體與美國國傢財政對此的反應是如此之小。 政府的監管部門反被其監管的對象所俘獲,這種情況並不罕見,但美國的議會...

所謂的美國病是具有美國特色的高價醫療。這讓我想起來1月份看的日本醫療製度,其中對比瞭日本與英國德國等西方國傢具有全民醫療保險的區彆,分析瞭日本醫療的特點。反觀我們國傢的醫療製度體係,我認為我國醫療保險和日本的有相似又有不同。日本不實行分級診療,而我們從不實行...

評分

引以為鑒。收集這麼多資料不容易。

評分

Comprehensive book about the American healthcare system, and offers advice on how to deal with it as normal people.

評分

給不在美國生活的人,對美國的醫療現狀有瞭新的認識。不知道作者背景,感覺有點在為奧巴馬醫改背書。

評分

前麵講美國醫療和保險體係多麼差勁,這早就知道,也覺得在可預測未來裏都不會好。後麵講怎麼辦,那些政策改革的我覺得也不太會實現。但是,中間有一部分講作為私人怎麼跟醫療體係作鬥爭,超級實用!!為瞭這個準備買本實體書。美國這個體係真的是一定要去argue纔可能不被坑啊,學學怎麼argue怎麼看價格以備不時之需。

評分

美國醫療體係內幕與如何不被坑的寶典
