• Sommario/riassunto: In Excellent Health offers an alternative view of the much maligned state of health care in America, using facts and peer-reviewed data to challenge the statistics often cited as evidence that medical care in the United States is substandard and poor in value relative to that of other countries. The author proposes a complete plan for reform in three critical areas of the health care puzzle?tax structure, private insurance markets, and government health insurance programs?designed to maintain choice and access to excellence and facilitate competition.
