When calculated on a per capita basis, the United States has the costliest health care system in the world. The debate rages on over how to cope with the rising costs of medical care, with proposed solutions ranging from a single-payer system with broad government control to loosely defined market-driven plans. Power to the Patient: Selected Health Care Issues and Policy Solutions looks at three key elements of health care costs—third-party payment, the realities of growth in medical spending, and the medical liability system—and offers thoughtful, realistic suggestions to help stem the tide of rising expenses for everyone.
