NEW BOOK: Lives at Risk

How National Health Insurance Fails Patients.

"Lives at Risk", is a definitive analysis of single-payer health care
systems, especially managed competition – the centerpiece of many
democratic health care proposals.

"Lives at Risk" shows that national single-payer health care systems
in countries such as Great Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand
have not delivered on the promise of a right to health care.

Evidence presented in Lives at Risk shows that patients in single-
payer countries routinely face a reduction in the quality of health
care:

-Lower quality of care, especially for the sick.

-Lack of access to the best doctors and medicines.

-Lack of access to new medical technology.

-Unreasonable waiting periods.

Single-payer health care systems, including managed competition
model, lead to some of the same bad consequences as national health
insurance – too many services for the healthy and too few for the
sick and the poor.
