Volume 1 # 1, Fall 2013

The needs are great and the money being spent is outrageous … especially in light of the results. There are many reasons why Patients and Physicians agree that participation in “the business of medicine†is not right. We do NOT have a Health Care System … we have a disease care system that takes care to make money on Care of the Sick. Descriptive phrases include “feels like a factory†and “feels like factory work†are commonly used by Patients, Physicians and other Health Care Providers … for good reason; patients have become product lines in what has grown into a collection of institutions designed on factory production models to make money on care of the sick. Most of the money being spent on “Health Care†goes to third parties not patient care, doctors and other caregivers. Sure, good care does happen, but that is the exception, not the rule.

“Years ago, I knew it was wrong, but now it is horribleâ€, to quote one of the docs who recently dropped out of Medicine because he could no longer do the right things for his patients inside the business of medicine. Everyone I ask says the same sorts of things … Patients, Doctors, Nurses, other providers … they all know something is wrong. Yes, it is wrong … it feels wrong, it does not work, it costs too much, the care is often substandard, the outcomes are sometimes unacceptable, and the business of medicine does not address the bulk of the needs of the people we are all here to serve. We all know it, but, how to fix it?

Below you will see a few examples of problems and solutions that have been proposed. Join us to learn more and to help Build Better Health Care for yourself, for those you love, those you care for, and for your community. Patients, Physicians and Providers … together we can fix this.
