The Healthcare Labyrinth: A Guide to Navigating Health Plans and Fixing American Health Insurance
How American health insurance actually works, priced and administered, rather than how the debate describes it.
Marc S. Ryan explains the mechanics of American health coverage: how plans are priced, what insurers and pharmacy benefit managers really do, why bills arrive in the form they do, and which reform proposals would change any of it. He writes from inside the industry rather than against it, and the economics is balanced enough to be useful to readers who disagree about the politics.

Marc S. Ryan, The Healthcare Labyrinth: A Guide to Navigating Health Plans and Fixing American Health Insurance is a very good and balanced book on the economics of health care.
