    About this ebook

    Your healthcare provider and you are together making an important medical decision. Who should influence this decision? Should it be an insurance provider? Should it be a politician? Should it be a lawyer? Should it be a bureaucrat? Should it be the federal or state government? Who should choose your healthcare providers for you? Who should pay for your medical care and how much? How much of the health care dollar should be proportioned to pay for actual medical care delivery and how much to pay for administrative functions? What if you have a very costly catastrophic illness? What if you have a bad outcome from your medical care? This book proposes a new healthcare system.
