The book illustrates how the communication tools that consumers use every day: digital records, email, the Internet, and smartphones are enabling technologies that help patients empower themselves to take charge of their health care, communicate with their clinicians, monitor their chronic conditions and collaborate with their health care team for better outcomes. This 2014 update to the original 2011 edition reflects changes to the Affordable Care Act and underscores the breakneck pace of change in both healthcare and technology. It is a comprehensive, accurate and useful healthcare guide, chock full of statistics, surveys, anecdotal stories including a list of key points and documented sources that close each chapter. Kirkus Indie Review, June 2014 The books eleven chapters cover everything from managing healthcare costs and records to understanding how preparing for a doctors visit has changed over the years and what your legal rights are as a self-advocating patient. The concepts in each chapter are introduced and reinforced with real-life stories that are appropriately suited to each topic. These illustrative stories make the concepts memorable and empowering.

A health care executive at Harvard explains how to become a savvy consumer and get the value we all deserve for our health care spending. This book navigates and demystifies the confusing world of health care shopping. Readers go on a guided tour inside American health care to learn why it is so messy, and who is invested in keeping it that way. The text offers a new vision of how health care could work if it were truly designed to meet consumer needs, creating a call to action on how to demand and help create such a system. A wake-up call to an industry tenuously holding on to the status quo and ripe for true disruption, this book outlines what consumers can do themselves and demand from doctors, hospitals, health plans, and policy makers to get more for their health care spending and, in so doing, reshape the health care system into one we all deserve. Using real and compelling consumer stories intertwined with expert analysis, this book illustrates why it is so difficult to act as an engaged health care consumer in the United States and pulls back the curtain to expose the forces that hold the system in place.
