New York Times bestseller
Business Book of the Year--Association of Business Journalists
From the New York Times bestselling author comes an eye-opening, urgent look at America’s broken health care system--and the people who are saving it--now with a new Afterword by the author.
"A must-read for every American." --Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief, FORBES
One
in five Americans now has medical debt in collections and rising health
care costs today threaten every small business in America. Dr. Makary,
one of the nation’s leading health care experts, travels across America
and details why health care has become a bubble. Drawing from
on-the-ground stories, his research, and his own experience, The Price We Pay
paints a vivid picture of the business of medicine and its elusive
money games in need of a serious shake-up. Dr. Makary shows how so much
of health care spending goes to things that have nothing to do with
health and what you can do about it. Dr. Makary challenges the medical
establishment to remember medicine’s noble heritage of caring for people
when they are vulnerable.
The Price We Pay offers a road
map for everyday Americans and business leaders to get a better deal on
their health care, and profiles the disruptors who are innovating
medical care. The movement to restore medicine to its mission, Makary
argues, is alive and well--a mission that can rebuild the public trust
and save our country from the crushing cost of health care.
