I read an absolutely heart-wrenching excerpt from this book (The People's Hospital) recently in the new yorker. See: https://www.newyorker.com/science/annals-of-medicine/the-ass...

One interesting point it emphasises is just how important insurance coverage is for survival. And that government insurance processes can be rather arbitrary or even injust.

I hope this book is successful and that it makes a change towards more equitable healthcare in the United States.
