Opis

Two Books: Bill Please: Consumers Driving Health Care 480 pages Fill The Gap: Saving Consumer-Driven Health Care 480 pages Inspired by the Choose Your Adventure(r) books he read as a boy, Rylan Klaseen decided to provide two books with two different calls to action in addressing consumers driving health care: 1) "Bill Please," which calls for consumers to create a "Bill Please" Revolution by posting their medical bills & stories 2) Fill The Gap, which calls for employers as well as consumers to fill the gap caused by Consumer-Driven High Deductible Health Plans with inexpensive gap insurance to ensure we keep moving towards the transparent, accountable, affordable health care system we all desire. Fill The Gap: Saving Consumer-Driven Health Care There are hundreds of books out there by economists, policymakers, journalists, and even doctors trying to fix health care. They are all urgent and necessary because spending over 19% of our GDP on less than the highest quality health care is not sustainable - and, frankly, American citizens deserve better. Rylan Klaseen has a different take than most. As an entrepreneur, and business owner, leading a group employee benefits firm, he's out in the trenches daily assisting employers and employees in riding the waves of health care reform, while innovating the most cost efficient, high quality health plan blends he can. The current state of Americans' health and health care is covered, emphasizing how we all had a hand in creating our opaque $3 trillion health care system - and how we can all fix it. He proves why consumers must take the wheel if we are to achieve the transparent, accountable, affordable health care system we all want and desperately need. But, he sounds the alarm that if we are to save consumer-driven health care, we must fill consumers' high deductible gap sooner rather than later, illustrating exactly how to inexpensively accomplish this. A must read for consumers, and all of the players in our U.S. health care system, with a special focus for businesses providing employee health benefits.
