Who Killed Health Care?: America's $2 Trillion Medical Problem - and the Consumer-Driven Cure

Description

A renowned authority from Harvard Business School confronts America's health care crisis-and how consumer control can fix it

Consumers are in charge of every transaction in their lives-except for health care. Insurance companies have either partial or total control over which doctors, treatments, and medications they can use. Doctors, on the other hand, are often powerless to assign the tests and treatments their patients need.

Regina Herzlinger, one of America's most respected and influential health care analysts, cuts through the politics, controversy, and headlines to examine this pressing problem. She also offers a potent solution: Through a consumer-driven system, insurance money would be put in the hands of the patient, remove the middle man in patients' relationships with their doctors, and give employers cost relief.

“Regina Herzlinger, the nation's leading expert on consumer-driven health care, has given us a brilliant analysis of the flaws in our health care system and what it will take to get it back on track. Her latest book is a must read.”-Bill George, professor of management practice, Harvard Business School, former CEO, Medtronic, and author of Authentic Leadership

“No one has done more than Regina Herzlinger to rethink health care and transform it from a bureaucratic mess into an entrepreneurial, market-oriented success. Her new book continues that historic mission.”-Newt Gingrich

“A superbly balanced perspective of what has happened to health care and how to correct the current deficiencies.”-Daniel H. Johnson Jr., M.D., former president of the American MedicalAssociation

Regina Herzlinger, Ph.D. is the Nancy R. McPherson professor of business administration at the Harvard Business School and a multiple award-winning researcher in the health care field.
