T. R. Reid’s The Healing of America
A Review

Selvi Bunce


US Health Care System: The Plight of the Uninsured

Through my reading of T.R. Reid’s book, The Healing of America, I learned that the United States health care system has a long way to go before it will even be competitive as one of the top health care systems in the world. This was news to me, as I have had health insurance all my life. However, while I had been aware of the wide number of uninsured citizens, I had not fully been aware of their plight, and this book really opened my eyes to how America’s health care system fails the poor.

By reading this book I learned that there are many ways the United States can improve by completely restructuring our health care system so that it is more united and less conflicted, allowing our insurers and physicians to become more perfect agents. The policies that other countries hold in health care, and what we should adopt is biblically significant because we have been called to be stewards of this Earth and of each other, in addition to ensuring justice as God planned. However, while it is easy to pinpoint where the United States has gone wrong and needs improvement, it is more difficult to say how possible that improvement is.
