The Great American Healthcare Heist

By Chris Deacon

It’s official: “The Great American Healthcare Heist” is available for pre-order, including bulk pre-orders for teams, clients, or events.

This book pulls no punches. It’s part confidential dossier, part public reckoning—the kind of inside account that is meant to rewire how you see the entire system. After this, those pharma ads, multi-million dollar sports sponsorships by non-profit healthcare systems, and billion-dollar care campuses will hit differently.


The topics include:

▪️ Hospital systems and the myth of “nonprofit” care
▪️ Consolidation and the unchecked monopolistic power reshaping entire markets
▪️ Insurers and middlemen—controlling employers while quietly becoming providers themselves
▪️ Pharma and PBMs—a tangled web of patent abuse, manipulation, and profiteering

Yes, it’s an indictment of a system and those in high places that continue to enable it to thrive.

But it’s also a path forward—solutions are teased, but I had to leave room for the sequel 😉

This isn’t just for industry insiders (though you’ll find plenty to chew on). It’s written intentionally to be accessible to the people outside our world—your friends, your family, your clients—those who keep asking:

“Why does it feel like the system is rigged?”

Because it is.

There’s only one stakeholder left with the power to change how this story ends: the American people. We just need to arm them with the truth.
