About this ebook
Get the Summary of Robert Yoho's Butchered by “Healthcare” in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: Healthcare is the top cause of all our overdue debts and personal bankruptcy. Our medical spending per person is double that of other countries’, but fully half the treatments are ineffective or harmful. Immense, predatory industries such as angioplasty and coronary artery bypass surgery victimize us. These procedures cause complications and deaths, but few patients survive even a day longer. Most back and endoscopic knee surgeries are equally worthless.
