Book Description:
“Once again, the legendary master of family medicine addresses with clinical
compassion the widespread concerns about “unsurance” and uncovered medical
costs. Geyman’s well-researched recommendations should be read by everyone.”
—Donald Light, Professor of Comparative Health Care Systems, Princeton
“For better and for worse, the safety net is what stands between millions of Americans and no health care at all. Dr. John Geyman’s Falling Through the Safety Net provides a brilliant road map to this nation’s patchwork of medical coverage for the uninsured. As a practitioner, teacher, and medical leader, Geyman has learned his way around the safety net first hand. His book reflects that knowledge as well as his resolve to move beyond the safety net and put a firm floor of medical care in its place. Falling Through the Safety Net is an intelligent instruction manual for dealing with our present dilemmas and a vital prescription pad for moving beyond them. Powerful reading for all.”
—Fitzhugh Mullan, MD, author, Big Doctoring in America: Profiles in Primary
Care.
