Healthcare continues to be one of the defining political issues in
the United States. Though many progressives argue for an overhaul
of the current system based on ethical or humanitarian principles,
this important book offers an economic rationale for providing
healthcare for all. The purpose of Medicare For All: An Economic
Rationale is to demonstrate how current runaway healthcare prices
can be addressed by implementing the cost-effectiveness of Medicare
For All. Written by a former Corporate Director and healthcare
consultant, this book illustrates why the current free market model
for healthcare is ultimately failing the country by not containing
rising healthcare costs, which has a severe economic impact on all
Americans, including those covered by employer medical plans. Major
factors in that failure such as the lack of transparency, human
decision factors, and high administrative costs in the current
system are explored. The book demonstrates that implementing
Medicare For All, providing comprehensive benefits with no copays,
private insurance premiums, deductibles, or other cost-sharing,
will not only improve the lives of most Americans, but will be far
more cost-effective than the present system. This is an incisive,
important contribution to a topic that continues to shape American
political discourse and will be of interest to scholars and
professionals engaged in this area as well as politicians and the
public in general.
