reviewed Getting It Done: How Obama and Congress Finally Broke the Stalemate to Make Way for Health Care Reform on June 28, 2013
Getting It Done
Healthcare is expensive and complicated by nature. The CEO of Starbucks reported the company spent more money insuring their employees than they did on coffee. A Pew survey in May of 2009 found 89 % of American thought the "government needed to do more to make healthcare more affordable and accessible." Among those same participants 46 % were concerned the government was getting too involved in healthcare. This means anyone who set out to work on healthcare reform legislation would have an uphill battle and be an easy target from the opposing party. Tom Daschle looks at the need for healthcare reform in the first section of the book. Then he looks at the negotiations that took place. He is bias in favor of the legislation. However he does address mistakes that were made and spends a lot of time examining why this legislation did not go far enough.
