Book Reviews of Let's Put Consumers in Charge of Health Care (HBR OnPoint Enhanced Edition)

Book Review: Consumer Control: An idea whose time has come...again
Summary: 5 Stars

The human & economic value of "consumer control" as a guiding light for efforts to put right a system that has gone very wrong is impossible to overestimate. This concept, whose origins are deeply rooted in the values of our nation, has served as the battle cry of the disability rights movement and is understood completely by anyone with a fraction of an ounce of business sense.
