Americans' health and well-being are slowly but steadily
disintegrating at an alarming rate. Americans are living longer,
but are they living better? How did we as a nation allow this to
happen? How did we as individuals lose our way along the healthy
continuum of life?
"Healthcare Stewardship" is the first, authoritative healthcare
management text applying the principles and practices of
stewardship, a concept with religious roots dating back to biblical
times, to the production and delivery of healthcare goods and
services.
Practicing stewardship is really quite simple. Limited
healthcare resources that are available for Americans must be used
in a manner that is clinically, ethically, politically,
environmentally and socially responsible. Unfortunately, simple in
the United States is far from being easily achieved. Bureaucracies
at the federal, state and local levels have resulted in creating
the most complex healthcare delivery system in the world.
The vision behind writing a book on healthcare stewardship is to
help Americans get back on track to being healthy, happy and
functional human beings. Healthcare stewardship is a concept that
needs to be taught at all levels along life's continuum from cradle
to grave. A commitment to make all of us healthy and wise consumers
of our precious healthcare resources is required in order to
achieve a more fulfilling and functional life here on Earth.
