Praise for Toward a 21st Century Health System

After three decades of trying to reform health care by looking for a "silver bullet," I found the "future" has been here for more than a century. Policymakers tired of banging heads and gavels on stone walls need look no further than this well-designed analysis of prepaid group practice for the incentives necessary to enhance health system quality, safety, and performance, expand access and equity, and vastly improve the professional-patient relationship.
Hon. David Durenberger, U.S. Senator (1978-1995), Senior Health Policy Fellow, University of St. Thomas

If you wonder why the American health system is judged by distinguished experts as "the poster boy of underachievement," read this collection of fine essays by longtime students of that system. The book is a particularly valuable read for students of medicine, health administration, and health policy. Here they will learn how much better value might be wrung out of the health system for the truly ample resources Americans grant it.
Uwe Reinhardt, James Madison professor of Political Economy, Princeton University
