Paperback. Zustand: Good. The U.S. healthcare system is in crisis. As Americans, we're facing serious problems - not only with skyrocketing healthcare costs, but also lack of patient access and inefficient delivery. Despite all the political debates and media coverage on healthcare policy and reform, there is always one glaring omission: Feedback from the people in the trenches - the doctors and other healthcare professionals who actually provide care to the patients. This book is written from a doctor's perspective, by Alejandro Badia, M.D., F.A.C.S., who didn't want to write this book, but felt he had to because of the incredible problems he sees every day in getting the patient the care they need. As an expert, his treatment plans are constantly second-guessed and obstructed by the system which has a near zero understanding of the problem that the patient faces. It became unbearable for Dr. Badia to continue to practice without calling out what is happening every day, as the norm, and is not the exception anymore.Medicine, once a noble calling, as evidenced by The Hippocratic Oath (Do No Harm), has transformed into an oppressive burdensome system for both doctors and patients. Non-Medical Experts hired by the Insurance Companies with zero medical training, and without any degrees or knowledge (in most cases) are calling the shots and continue to interfere with the doctor-patient relationship, delay and prevent the delivery of care, and present an obstacle to innovations that would improve patient outcomes and reduce overall healthcare costs. This is a life and death matter and people are dying because of this flawed system.Healthcare from the Trenches will give you an in-depth behind the scenes look at our system from a practicing doctors' perspective along with contributors ranging from fellow colleagues to beleaguered patients, who offer their insights and share their personal stories to illustrate the inherent shortcomings in the U.S. healthcare industry as well as proposed solutions.…
