Summary Dr. Ricardo Nuila takes us inside the Harris Health System and Ben Taub Hospital, where he has practiced medicine for more than a decade. He shares the experiences of five of his patients, braiding their stories into a single narrative that tears down the notion that good healthcare in America is only available to the well insured. Despite the massive challenges, Ben Taub, a publicly funded hospital, provides affordable, accessible healthcare for pennies on the dollar. Nuila shows us how, and makes clear the enormous impact this kind of healthcare has on individual patients' lives, and on the health of a community.
