Health Care: It Can Be Fixed [Paperback]

Fritz Scheffel (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 15, 2007

Americans are uneasy about the cost and availability of health care HEALTH CARE: IT CAN BE FIXED will begin the process of change through an understanding of what health care was before government involvement, how we got in this mess and what we can do about it. The system is broken as a result of political greed, plain and simple. With more than four decades of experience in American health care, Fritz Scheffel explains how we can have the very best and affordable health care system in the world and why, if we do not begin the process of making it right, it may never happen. Roughly speaking, Americans up to age 50 have grown up "expecting" a system to work because our politicians have teased us over and over that they can provide the cure. NOTHING could be further from the truth. 5.5 x 8.5 inches Trade Paper Back - 84 Pages

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, Easy Read about How to Fix Healthcare Now!, December 18, 2007

This review is from: Health Care: It Can Be Fixed (Paperback)

Fritz Scheffel shares a few decades worth of anecdotal experience in showing us how to fix the current debacle we call health care here in the US. And no, it doesn't involve having the government take it over.

If you really think the government is the answer, it must not have been a good question. Does social security work? Does public education work? Does any large program the govt has created, despite great intentions, work? Before you cast a vote at the polls you should read Fritz's book and ask yourself - does this candidate support anything close to this vision?

I am all about saving the environment, all about eliminating national debt - but the biggest issue at stake is the rising cost of and poor management of healthcare. A candidate who listens to half of what Fritz suggests can help themselves and the constituents who they are supposed to serve. It is time for the big business of healthcare to change.
