In this essential guide, preeminent physician Nortin Hadler urges American health-care consumers to take time to understand the existing system and to visualize what the outcome of successful reform might look like. Central to this vision is a shared understanding of the primacy of the relationship between doctor and patient. Hadler shows us that a new approach is necessary if we hope to improve the health of the populace. Rational health care, he argues, is far less expensive than the irrationality of the status quo.Taking a critical view of how medical treatment, health-care finance, and attitudes about health, medicine, and disease play out in broad social and political settings, Hadler applies his wealth of experience and insight to these pressing issues, answering important questions for citizen patients and policy makers alike"--Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Shills : when profit trumps benefit -- Price fixing -- Truth and consequences : marketing with tortured and massaged data -- If we build it, they will come : the procedures and devices gambit -- Another good idea still in waiting : health promotion, disease prevention -- The social construction of health -- Extricating health care from the perversities of its delivery system -- A clinic for the twenty-first century -- Quo vadis. 650 0 $a Medical care $z United States. 650 0 $a Health care reform $z United States. 650 0 $a Patient participation. 650 0 $a Physician and patient. 650 12 $a Delivery of Health Care $z United States. 650 22 $a Health Care Reform $z United States. 650 22 $a Patient Participation $z United States. 650 22 $a Physician-Patient Relations $z United States. 650 7 $a Health care reform. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00952850 650 7 $a Medical care. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01013753 650 7 $a Patient participation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01055025 650 7 $a Physician and patient. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01062819 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 $i Online version: $a Hadler, Nortin M. $t Citizen patient. $d [Chapel Hill] : University of North Carolina Press, c2013 $z 1469607050 $w (OCoLC)839388932 830 0 $a H.
