now available!
When it comes to the United States healthcare system, most Americans can agree on one thing: change needs to happen.
What we can’t agree on is what changes to make and how to make them.
In For the Hurt of My People: Original Conservatism and Better, Simpler Health Care, Joseph Q. Jarvis, MD, MSPH, an experienced healthcare professional, offers a practical solution to what has historically been an expensive mess.
All Americans deserve to have access to high-quality healthcare that puts the patients first, not profit.
More than a political issue, healthcare is a humanitarian issue. Continuing in our cycle of making the insurance companies and medical corporations richer by the day at the expense of patients who often cannot afford the care they need is not going to work.
The wellness of us all depends on how we respond now. Join the movement for universal healthcare with “For the Hurt of My People.”
In What the Single Eye Sees: Faith, Hope, Charity & the Pursuit of Discipleship, Dr. Joseph Q. Jarvis reveals spiritual insights we’ve never considered before.
He teaches us how to explore what Christ’s call to discipleship really means and how following that call deepens our relationship with the Savior.
In The Hope of the Promise: Israel in the Ancient & Latter Days, Dr. Joseph Q. Jarvis explores the real sites of biblical events, their connection to the gospel, and how we can use them to enrich our faith.
Using vivid images and archaeological analysis, he gives context to the stories we were raised with, reminding us that they are a pivotal part of history.
In The Purple World, Dr. Joseph Q. Jarvis, MD, examines how our nation’s focus has radically shifted from the disease to the dollar—drastically harming Americans in the process.
Instead of simply pointing fingers and wailing about the outrages, Dr. Joseph Q. Jarvis offers a workable solution that can be implemented by each state.
Options for a Better Health Care System
Health Care Reform
As Americans, we know our healthcare system is broken, expensive, and unfair. Now, let’s find a way to make improvements in how we care for ourselves.
In For the Hurt of My People: Original Conservatism and Better, Simpler Health Care, Joseph Q. Jarvis, MD, MSPH, a long-time public health physician, offers practical ideas on how to untangle the messy politics which keep our nation from really reforming how we do healthcare.
Illness or injury should not be reduced to a business opportunity, but instead should be a chance to meet individual need and thereby promote the general welfare of American society.
Charity, in the broad spiritual sense, should be the driving force in how we do healthcare, because altruism better motivates than avarice.
Whether we Americans can heal our fractured society depends upon whether we can find common cause with each other in caring for all our sick and injured.
