Attention. Your insurer moves faster than you. Denials fire off in seconds. Prices climb without warning. Networks shrink every month. You face a system built to overwhelm you. The Patient’s Playbook 2026 shows you how to push back with a calm, structured plan that protects your health and your wallet. The rules shifted in 2026.

Just when you think it can’t get any worse, the universe seems to Deane Waldman, MD MBA: After four decades fighting the system to provide best care to cardiac babies, he knew something had to change, but change to what?

Written by two NHS doctors with lived experience. We wrote this book because we kept having the same conversation, a patient would sit down, say "I think I might be autistic" or "I think I have ADHD," and we had almost nothing from medical school to help us or them apart from doing a referral letter. So we realised that we need better information to guide our consults. From research, professional experience and from our patients. This is for GPs, nurses, paramedics, therapists, anyone who sees patients and wants to get this right and needs information at their fingertips.

In America's Health: The Community Is Now the Patient, Dr. Leslie Bronner delivers an urgent, evidence-based call to action that challenges how we think about healthcare in the United States. Drawing on more than two decades of clinical experience as a psychiatrist and a doctoral background in public health, Dr. Bronner argues that the cycle of poor health in this country is driven by the social determinants of health—the conditions in the communities where people live, work, and raise their families.

Appell für eine wirklich patientenorientierte Medizin! Krankenhäuser und Praxen haben sich in den letzten Jahren mehr und mehr zu Wirtschaftsunternehmen entwickelt - zum Nachteil der Patienten und des Personals. Das System ist strikt auf Gewinn ausgerichtet, gleichzeitig ist eine enorme Verschwendung an menschlichen und materiellen Ressourcen zu beobachten. Überversorgung und Mangel sind die beiden Seiten einer Medaille. Die Corona-Pandemie hat es wie unter einem Brennglas gezeigt: Einerseits sind wir enorm leistungsfähig, andererseits schlecht organisiert und unterfinanziert.
