In The People's Hospital, physician Ricardo Nuila's stunning debut, we follow the lives of five uninsured Houstonians as their struggle for survival leads them to a hospital where insurance comes second to genuine care. Each patient eventually lands at Ben Taub, the county hospital where Dr. Nuila has worked for over a decade. Nuila delves with empathy into the experiences of his patients, braiding their dramas into a singular narrative that contradicts the established idea that the only way to receive good healthcare is with good insurance. As readers follow the movingly rendered twists and turns in each patient's story, it's impossible to deny that our system is broken--and that Ben Taub's innovative model, which emphasizes people over payments, could help light the path forward."-- $c Publisher marketing. 610 20 $a Ben Taub General Hospital. 650 0 $a Public hospitals $z Houston. $z Houston. 650 0 $a Medically uninsured persons $x Medical care $z Houston. $z Houston. 650 0 $a Medical care $z Houston. $z Houston. 650 0 $a Hospital care $z Houston. $z Houston. 650 0 $a Public health $z Houston. $z Houston. 941 $a 28 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409043908.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20240326010404.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025054.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20240216010205.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117011859.0 952 $l MTPB743 $d 20231115174814.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010033800.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20230915010447.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20230816010117.0 952 $l VKPE334 $d 20230801011028.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20230726010036.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20230718014249.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230708011437.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230630010835.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015335.0 952 $l ESPD725 $d 20230608154058.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230505010307.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20230505010105.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20230502011550.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20230502011454.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230502011000.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230502010547.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230414010335.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230405013435.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230405010246.0 952 $l SCPC074 $d 20230404020826.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230404020414.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230404020011.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=03B781D2D2B111ED872B743748ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
