Poverty and the Myths of Health Care Reform

by Richard (Buz) Cooper

Book Overview

Proof that high health care spending is linked directly to poverty.

In Poverty and the Myths of Health Care Reform, Dr. Richard (Buz) Cooper argues that US poverty and high health care spending are inextricably entwined. Our nation's health care system bears a financial burden that is greater than in any other developed country in large part because impoverished patients use more health care, driving up costs across the board.
