Beyond Bureaucracy

A Direct Funding Approach to American HealthcareBy Jeffrey A Dale WilsonRecorded Track
Length10h 8m

About this audiobook

What if America's healthcare crisis isn't about a lack of money, but what happens to that money before it reaches the patient? Americans spend more on healthcare than any other nation, yet millions struggle with rising premiums, denied claims, medical debt, and a system so complicated that even understanding the bill can feel impossible. *Beyond Bureaucracy* challenges the idea that this is simply the cost of modern healthcare. Author Jeffrey A. Dale Wilson takes a fresh look at where our healthcare dollars go, why administrative complexity continues to grow, and what could happen if we fundamentally changed how healthcare is funded. Introducing the Direct Funding Healthcare System Approach (DFHSA), Wilson lays out an alternative designed to put patients and providers first, reduce unnecessary bureaucracy, and make healthcare more affordable and transparent. The question isn't whether America can afford better healthcare. It's whether we're willing to rethink how we pay for it.
