For decades, AEI's Health Policy Studies Program has been a leader in debates over health care issues. In recent years, the program has examined Medicare reform, the reimportation of prescription drugs, health coverage for the uninsured, the role of the Food and Drug Administration, the development of vaccines, the effects of price controls on pharmaceutical innovation, and private-sector solutions to public health problems.


"[U]seful background to anyone who wants to explain the [Medicare] crisis in understandable terms to consumers, patients, or one's own family. . . . I found the book a worthy read with thoughtful solutions."

--Prentiss Taylor, Journal of the American Medical Association

"A must read. Rettenmaier and Saving cut through the heated rhetoric and inscrutable figures that plague Medicare discussions, providing a clear, readable explanation of what's wrong with the program and what's to be done. They haven't simply written a great book; they've performed a crucial public service."

--David Gratzer, senior fellow, Manhattan Institute

"This is by far the most comprehensive and compelling analysis produced to date of the long-term fiscal challenge posed by Medicare. The authors render with great clarity and precision just how and why the economic burden of financing the health care of America's senior citizens will mushroom in the decades ahead."

--John L. Palmer, university professor and dean emeritus, the Maxwell School of Syracuse University, and public trustee of the Social Security and Medicare Trust Funds (2000-2007)
