An astounding number of Americans die every year from a preventable medical error. Many more of us aren't receiving the best health care possible, despite the fact that it's readily available. The key to getting the health care you're entitled to is knowing how to access it.
Leslie D. Michelson's The Patient's Playbook: How to Save Your Life and the Lives of Those You Love is the ultimate healthcare management guide. Written for healthcare consumers, the book will show you how to choose the right doctor, minimize medical mistakes, and coordinate the best care for you and your family. With real-life stories and easy-to-follow strategies for navigating the most complex situations, this playbook will enable you with the knowledge you need to become a smarter healthcare consumer.
In this book you will learn:
• Why having the right primary care physician will change your life for the better

According to a 2013 article published on Forbes, companies that have historically provided health care for their employees will continue to shift coverage costs to their workers – and the costs are continuing to increase. Michelson, the CEO of Private Health Management, aims to educate individuals about how to best manage their health and health care expenses, find the best treatment and keep costs low.
