Where Have We Failed?: A Systemic Analysis of U.S. Health Care
by Roger K. Howe
Category: Medical

The author describes the ecosystem of health care financing and delivery and some of the interactions among the components of the system. His contention is that improved understanding of how the health care system arrived at its current sorry state of affairs is a critical first step in changing it so that it services all of the shareholders more effectively. He discusses how some of the solutions that have been proposed may not do what they are expected to do. And he makes some broad recommendations about where we should go from here.
