A blueprint for comprehensive, science-based health care system
reform. Financial and political pressures on our health care system
have negatively impacted individual care and the health system as a
whole, an issue that has only become more acute because of the
COVID-19 pandemic. In Building a Unified American Health Care
System, Gilead I Lancaster, MD, lays out a blueprint for
comprehensive health care reform, proposing a unified system run by
health care professionals--not politicians or commercial health
insurance companies--that offers universal coverage and access.
Lancaster compares the current arguments for single payer versus
commercial health insurance systems with arguments in the early
1900s for a central bank versus regional commercial banks. He then
introduces a novel solution: the establishment of a National
Medical Board similar to the Federal Reserve System that helped fix
the American banking system over a century ago. Along with other
innovations, a plan co-created by Lancaster dubbed EMBRACE
(Expanding Medical and Behavioral Resources with Access to Care for
Everyone) would involve creating a modern, evidence-based health
care system, one offering universal coverage for basic needs while
allowing for commercial insurance participation. Emphasizing the
importance of separating health care from governmental and
commercial pressures and incentives, Lancaster explains the need
for comprehensive--rather than incremental--reform of the American
health care system.
