The United States spends substantially more on health care than other wealthy nations, yet it has poorer health outcomes. The Road to Medicare for All: A Call to Action analyzes the dysfunction of the current system and sets forth the solution.

With the question of healthcare at a pivotal juncture, this book provides a roadmap towards making healthcare a right, not a privilege. It inoculates readers against the arguments and tactics used by the monied interests to defeat a single-payer system. The Road to Medicare for All explains that the nation was heading in the right direction until the monied interests drove the nation onto the road we are now on. The book details how the nation can get back on track and finally reach the destination of universal, single-payer health insurance. Nancy J. Altman puts forward a call to action for every American and spotlights how the American people are united in their readiness to improve Medicare and expand it to everyone.

Written by a national leader in research and advocacy, this book is highly informative to experts and the general public alike. It is essential reading for students of medical sociology, aging and gerontology, health policy, public health, the politics of US health care, public administration, and political science.
