What is Curing Medicare : one doctor's view of how our health care system is failing the elderly and how to fix it about?
xxxiv, 256 pages ; 23 cm Medicare needs to be cured in order to truly help the people it was designed to aid, and twenty-five year primary care physician Andy Lazris is just the doctor to write the prescription. His book, Curing Medicare, is not about theory; it's about practice. And more importantly, it's about people. Addressing current Medicare issues through stories and data, Dr. Lazris begins to reform geriatric health care before your very eyes. His solution is simple but rather than simply declaring it, he shows you step by step, person by person, how today's system promotes harmful overtreatment in the geriatric population and thereby instigates the very problems it seeks to remedy. These days, the medical culture is all about fixing problems. But aging is not a disease to be cured - it is a life stage to be lived. And aggressive treatments cannot change that fact. In actuality, it is the more limited and holistic approaches that better aid elderly patients as they adjust to their changing health. But the current system will not pay for those kinds of treatments. Straightforward and practical, Curing Medicare approaches ailing health policy with gentleness and honesty Inclu
