Tender Loving Greed -- 2009 Notes

The 1974 George C. Polk Award exposé that blew the lid off the incredibly lucrative nursing home industry, showing how it exploited America's old people and defrauded us all. Reissued with a behind the scenes look at how the powerful chairman of the Senate Subcommittee on Long-Term Care tried to kill the book. As relevant today for long-term care and health care in general as it was when it first came out. Fraud, swindles, corruption, organized crime-bigger today than ever-the better part of a trillion dollars a year, and just as hidden as it was forty years ago.
