Rescuing the Doctor-Patient Relationship Ronald Wayne Hamner

Healthcare in America is ill. Moreover, the bill for this illness is rising and America cannot afford the price! Saving the American health care system requires restoring centrality of the doctor-patient relationship. To rescue the doctor-patient relationship only occurs by understanding how payment systems, economics, and regulations affect that relationship. This book examines how the doctor-patient relationship has been affected by developments in economics and regulations, then offers solutions to rescue that relationship and restore patient-centric decision-making.
