In the United States, it is generally believed that the major problem is lack of affordable access to health care (i.e. health insurance). This book takes an unprecedented approach to address this issue by proposing that the major problem is not lack of affordable access to health care per se, but lack of access to better, safer, and more affordable medicines. The latter problem is present not only in the United States and the developing world but also in countries with socialized health care systems, such as Europe and the rest of the industrialized world. This book provides a comparative analysis of the health care systems throughout the world and also examines the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. Examines the health care structure of the United States, Europe, and the third world, both separately and comparatively offers primary source insight through in-depth interviews with pharmaceutical and health care industry leaders from around the world. Carefully explains, in clear terms, the intricacies of the health care and pharmaceutical system and how these intricacies have led to the current crisis. Offers concrete, comprehensive solutions to the health care crisis. 650 0 Medical care.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85082871 650 0 Health care reform.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh93007525 650 0 Medical ethics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85082929 650 0 Social medicine.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85123973 650 7 Medical care.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1013753 650 7 Health care reform.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 952850 650 7 Medical ethics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1014081 650 7 Social medicine.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1122637 650 7 Medical care.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0001004 830 0 Elsevier insights.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2010053011 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 572409 948 |d20181012|cLTI|tlti-aup183 948 |d20171012|cLTI|tlti-aup173 948 |d20161019|clti|tlti-aup163 994 C0|bRID
