US health-care system "in the midst of war"

June 1, 2007

Regina Herzlinger:

“The US health-care system is in the midst of a ferocious war. Four armies are battling to gain control: the health insurers, hospitals, government and doctors,” she writes at the start of her new book, “Who Killed Health Care?”. Then she moves in for the kill: “Yet you and I, the people who use the health system and who pay for all of it, are not even combatants.”
