Overview

"You think the battle for real health care reform is over? John Geyman says 'Not on your life!' And, by the way, your life is what's at stake. This one-time Republican country doctor and long-time respected scholar, editor, and advocate for reform that puts the patient, not the industry, first, has issued an informed, convincing, and passionate account of why the battle has just begun, and how we, the people, can win."#151;Bill Moyers

"Geyman's literary voice arises from his unusual professional and political trajectories. . . . A passionate advocate and scholar."#151;The New England Journal of Medicine

Is health care "reform" 2010 better than nothing? Dr. John Geyman warns of soaring costs, no price controls, and more Americans going without necessary health care. This is our future in the aftermath of health care "reform" 2010, guided by a failing industry bailed out by new government subsidies. This well-documented book charts a path to that end, and is essential reading for anyone who wants to better understand how our health care system got this way and what we can do about it.

Author of six books on health care policy, John Geyman is professor emeritus of family medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. He has spent twenty-five years in academic family medicine. He is past president of Physicians for National Health Insurance. He blogs on The Huffington Post and Physicians for a National Health Program, and he speaks on community radio stations.
