Product Description
America's Health Care Crisis Solved, highlights the major pitfalls of the current American health care system and show why, without changes, health care costs will soon demolish the American economy. The alternative they address includes bringing the self-interest of the American consumer into the purchase of health care. The authors examine how an insured family's spending can be reduced by as much as the deductible and how for the uninsured, the government could stand in place of an employer to pay part of the cost of health insurance. Page by page, Rooney and Perrin skillfully explain their innovative plan for effectively achieving these goals and lowering costs.

Easy to understand May 2, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I just got this book and found it to be very helpful. I've spent a lot of time and effort researching health care and the different options but i keep finding two problems:
1) Nothing makes clear sense and much of the book it is above my head
2) The answer is usually politically charged
I found that unlike the other books I read, this one was very easy to understand and the argument was very balanced. I have to say I highly recommend it.

If you are concerned about the future of our nation's health care system, you must read this book! Rooney and Perrin have provided easy-to-understand, common-sense solutions in a health care book that is actually a fast read. No PhD needed. Just an open mind.
Finally, a balanced solution April 29, 2008

Everywhere I turn, everyone's talking about the health care problem but no one ever offers any viable solutions.
Well, after reading this book, that's changed. The authors actually present a solution that resonates with your mind, as well as with your conscience. A fair & reasonable approach, I think it would be a disservice to not read it.
Finally--the Free Market Solution for Health Care April 28, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Too often, policymakers on the right cede ground when it comes to health care.
Not Pat Rooney and Dan Perrin.
There is a free market solution to health care. It starts with health savings accounts (HSAs), but doesn't end there. Interstate purchase of health insurance plans. Account-based Medicare and Medicaid. Making doctor and hospital prices at least as transparent as drug prices. High risk pools. Skilled nursing facilities. Wellness care.
It's all there. If you're looking for a good answer to HillaryCare 2.0 and SnObama-care, read this book.
