The Downgrading of American Healthcare: How Regulatory and Cultural Forces Continue to Negatively Impact the Healthcare System in the United States (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798594651272)

This book exposes how regulatory and cultural changes taking place in our Country over the last forty years have fundamentally changed the delivery of medical care into the more politically appealing yet artificial concept of a healthcare system. This metamorphosis has resulted in lower standards, suboptimal quality and, effectively, a widespread downgrading of what once was an exceptional medical system. The book is written from the perspective of a practicing specialist, whose career has encompassed working for two major universities, the U.S. Army Medical Corp and, more recently, private medical practice. The author, born and raised in Latin America, has had the opportunity to personally experience all of these changes and the resulting healthcare downgrade, and is able to provide an insider's view of the current state of affairs, together with the only potential solution to a process that continues to threaten the quality of american medicine for generations to come.
