Author Bio
Dr. Peter Anderson, a pioneer in team care medicine and a passionate champion for primary care, struggled for a decade to save his own medical practice while also creating strategies for the tempest descending upon primary care medicine.
With co-authors Bud Ramey and Tom Emswiller, two long-standing, award winning health care communicators, Dr. Anderson describes the quickly approaching crisis that holds the potential to impact health care in America for decades.
It s powered by burned-out and frustrated family doctors retiring early with not enough young primary care physicians to replace them; more than 30 million newly insured patients; an aging population; increasing regulations and decreasing reimbursement and it s converging with a sea change of healthcare reform in a world of uncertainty.
It s the perfect storm that endangers primary care medicine and threatens to drive our trusted familiar physicians toward extinction.
