Review of Surviving the Business of Healthcare
Surviving the Business of Healthcare by Barbara Galutia Regis PA-C is a non-fiction book expounding on the changes in the healthcare system from the perspective of Barbra Galutia Regis, a fourth-generation primary care provider. The positive and negative transformations cover a wide range of happenings. First, the author mentions the cost of seeking medication. The affordability has become burdening based on the high costs of care provisions. Secondly, the author expounds on the change of personality and character of primary healthcare providers, where there has emerged a generation whose intentions are to earn pay without valuing the patient-caregiver relationship. This is a threat to the future progress of this sector. Thirdly, the author gives a prediction of the changes in the recent future of this sector, mainly through the insurance and medical cover that have greatly influenced the growth of this sector to become better than in the past days.
The book is a mind-opener. The author gives a first-person experience in this profession concerning what she, her father, her grandfather, and her great-grandfather have experienced as primary care caregivers. Again, the book is educational on the importance and significance of insurance on property, life, and assets. Once more, the book is insightful on the need to be prepared for any outcome in life, with death being no exception, by creating a will. A will helps in sharing and distributing wealth and property without chaotic scenarios. Moreover, with the cost of shopping for medication going higher, the author advises the readers to consider enrolling in a functional medical cover to cater to medical expenses. Furthermore, within the wicked, crooked, and flawed generation of impersonal healthcare givers, Barbara Galutia Regis PA-C leads n exemplary life worth being emulated by any other person in this profession, based on how friendly, caring, concerned, and kind she has been to patients under her care.
The narrations left me struck by emotions, mainly when the author mentions that after her provisional services tendering to patients, she turned into a cancer patient and now receiving the care she used to provide. What a misfortune in life!
I rate this book five out of five stars. There are no dumping stories outside the title, Surviving the Business of Healthcare: Knowledge is Power. Additionally, the concepts are powerful, insightful, informative, and powerfully presented. The editing is exceptional.
I recommend this book to healthcare givers in today's society. There is a lot they will learn from the personality of the author. Again, any adult will find the book positively insightful on several considerations to make in life regarding family's health affairs.
