Despite remarkable medical advancements, escalating costs and a chronic disease epidemic have transformed healthcare into an industry focused more on managing disease than curing it. In Unsustainable, Dr. Christopher Voss-a physician with expertise in anesthesiology, critical care, pain medicine, and lifestyle medicine-offers a compelling, well-researched examination of how capitalism has shaped modern healthcare, often rewarding continuous treatment over definitive cures. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDr. Voss traces the historical evolution of American medicine, exposing the misaligned incentives that have led to rising costs, physician burnout, and a public increasingly dependent on pharmaceuticals and high-cost procedures. He delves into third-party payers, the pharmaceutical industry, and hospital consolidations, revealing the systemic forces that prioritize financial gain over genuine health outcomes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut this book is not just about diagnosing the problem-it presents real solutions. Drawing from successful models in preventive medicine, value-based care, and global healthcare systems, Unsustainable outlines a vision for rebalancing capitalism in medicine. Dr. Voss argues that profit and patient well-being don't have to be at odds-if incentives are structured to reward prevention, patient empowerment, and curative treatments. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is a must-read for physicians, policymakers, healthcare administrators, and patients who want to understand why healthcare costs continue to spiral and what can be done to create a sustainable, ethical, and patient-centered system. Through a mix of rigorous research, real-world examples, and bold policy recommendations, Unsustainable challenges the status quo and presents a compelling roadmap for the future of American healthcare. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhether you are a medical professional or a patient navigating this complex system, this book will change how you think about healthcare-and what it takes to fix it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Voss Mba Mls Fccp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798992557657\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Medical Specialists Associates, PC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 346\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.72d","brand":"Christopher Voss Mba Mls Fccp","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48801018183935,"sku":"9798992557657","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/unsustainable-christopher-voss-mba-mls-fccp-9798992557657","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
