About this audiobook

What if healthcare reform begins with a different question—not who should pay, but what healthcare is meant to accomplish? In Two Countries, One Idea: Healthcare as Infrastructure in Practice, surgeon, physician advisor, and author Sheri A. Mancini, MD, FACS, explores how nations can build healthcare systems that balance innovation with accountability, transparency, and reliability. Through a comparison of the United States and other countries, this companion work examines the principles behind healthcare as essential infrastructure. Rather than offering a partisan prescription, Dr. Mancini invites listeners to consider healthcare through the lens of purpose, governance, stewardship, and civic responsibility—and to imagine a system designed to better serve patients, communities, and the nation.
