In this long-awaited second edition of his groundbreaking work, Priceless: Curing the Healthcare Crisis, renowned healthcare economist John Goodman (“father” of Health Savings Accounts) analyzes America’s ongoing healthcare fiasco—including, for this edition, the extra damage Obamacare has inflicted on America’s healthcare system. Goodman then provides what many critics of our healthcare system neglect: solutions.
And not a moment too soon. Entangled in even more perverse incentives that raise costs, reduce quality, and make care less accessible, Americans are sicker and poorer than ever. But it’s not just patients that need liberation from this labyrinth of confusion—it’s doctors, businessmen, and institutions as well. The truth is, no one benefits in our current system.
Which means the time for change was yesterday.
Read this new work and discover:
How the absence of real prices for health insurance and medical care doesn’t solve but creates problems—especially under Obamacare
The perverse Obamacare incentives that cause insurance companies to avoid insuring patients with real health problems—and fail to encourage them to treatment even when they are insured
Why having a preexisting condition is actually WORSE under Obamacare than it was before—despite rosy political promises to the contrary
Why emergency-room traffic and long waits for care have actually increased under Obamacare
The alarming shortcomings of Medicaid (and how it’s managed, thanks to Obamacare, to expand anyways)
How the market for medical care COULD be as efficient and consumer-friendly as the market for cell phone repair…and what it would take to make that happen
How to create centers of medical excellence designed to actually treat Americans (not exclude them, as is the current practice)
And much, much more…
Thoroughly researched, clearly written, and decidedly humane in its concern for the health of all Americans, John Goodman has written the healthcare book to read to understand today’s healthcare mess. His proposed solutions are bold, crucial, and most importantly, caring. Healthcare is complex. But this book isn’t. It’s clear, it’s satisfying, and it’s refreshingly human.
If you read even one book about healthcare policy in America, this—once again—is the one to read.
