Despite remarkable medical advancements, escalating costs and a chronic disease epidemic have transformed healthcare into an industry focused more on managing disease than curing it. In Unsustainable, Dr. Christopher Voss-a physician with expertise in anesthesiology, critical care, pain medicine, and lifestyle medicine-offers a compelling, well-researched examination of how capitalism has shaped modern healthcare, often rewarding continuous treatment over definitive cures. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDr. Voss traces the historical evolution of American medicine, exposing the misaligned incentives that have led to rising costs, physician burnout, and a public increasingly dependent on pharmaceuticals and high-cost procedures. He delves into third-party payers, the pharmaceutical industry, and hospital consolidations, revealing the systemic forces that prioritize financial gain over genuine health outcomes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut this book is not just about diagnosing the problem-it presents real solutions. Drawing from successful models in preventive medicine, value-based care, and global healthcare systems, Unsustainable outlines a vision for rebalancing capitalism in medicine. Dr. Voss argues that profit and patient well-being don't have to be at odds-if incentives are structured to reward prevention, patient empowerment, and curative treatments. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is a must-read for physicians, policymakers, healthcare administrators, and patients who want to understand why healthcare costs continue to spiral and what can be done to create a sustainable, ethical, and patient-centered system. Through a mix of rigorous research, real-world examples, and bold policy recommendations, Unsustainable challenges the status quo and presents a compelling roadmap for the future of American healthcare. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhether you are a medical professional or a patient navigating this complex system, this book will change how you think about healthcare-and what it takes to fix it.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 346\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.72 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 11, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53750533718323,"sku":"9798992557657","price":40.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/44bwohDi4H9798992557657.webp?v=1785274175","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/unsustainable-how-american-healthcare-became-a-machine-for-managing-disease-and-how-we-can-fix-it-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
