It is not glamorous. I do not show up in scrubs to a television show and talk to you about which supplements you should or should not be taking. I don\'t jet off to some developing nation to discuss water sanitation. And no, I don\'t live in a big house and play golf on Wednesdays. As a matter of fact, my day is mostly focused on survival, both yours and mine. The Demise of Medicine takes a hard-hitting look at the current and future state of health care in America. Family physician and Gulf War veteran Andrew Morton takes readers inside his life as an infantry medic in Desert Storm, a medical student, and finally, a physician, to show the problems with the health care system. From the basic organization of modern health care delivery to the financial structure, liability, and the office visit, the American health care system is a dysfunctional mess. Americans are losing their privacy, autonomy, and choice. Providers may or may not be sufficiently trained to treat the patient they\'re attending, and everyone is paying the price as the level of health care deteriorates. Forget what you know about what\'s wrong with the health care system. It\'s much worse. The Demise of Medicine is upon us. My message today is that this system, integrative medicine, must be a key part of American health care reform. Here is why: The citizens of the United States spend more per capita on health care thano Offers an innovative plan to eliminate inequalities in American health care and save the lives they endanger Over 84,000 black and brown lives are needlessly lost each year due to health disparities: the unfair, unjust, and avoidable differences between the quality and quantity of health care provided to Americans who are members of racial and ethnic minorities and care provided to whites. Health disparities have remained stubbornly entrenched in the American health care system--and in Just Medicine Dayna Bowen Matthew finds that they principally arise from unconscious racial and ethnic biases held by physicians, institutional providers, and their patients.Implicit bias is the single most important determinant of health and health care disparities. Because we have missed this fact, the money we spend on training providers to become culturally competent, expanding wellness education programs and community health centers, and even expanding access to health insurance will have only a modest effect on reducing health disparities. We will continue to utterly fail in the effort to eradicate health disparities unless we enact strong, evidence-based legal remedies that accurately address implicit and unintentional forms of discrimination, to replace the weak, tepid, and largely irrelevant legal remedies currently available.Our continued failure to fashion an effective response that purges the effects of implicit bias from American health care, Matthew argues, is unjust and morally untenable. In this book, she unites medical, neuroscience, psychology, and sociology research on implicit bias and health disparities with her own expertise in civil rights and constitutional law.
