Anyone read any useful books on current US Healthcare? I am looking for an unbiased book that lays out the facts of how our healthcare system works in a simple format. As a millennial, I am trying to better educate myself on what I'll be dealing with in years to come. Thanks in advance!

Not a book, but this article is an outstanding primer on everything that is fundamentally wrong. It is non-partisan in outlook in case you are worried about 'agenda.'

One of those complex issues that everyone is an expert on.

Ex-Acute: Former Hospital CEO

This next on my reading list. Not sure if it's what your looking for as it mainly talks about issues within healthcare. I've heard it was a good read though.
