Why does a doctor visit cost money? Who pays for hospitals? And what happens to an economy when millions of people get sick?

These are the questions future thinkers, problem-solvers, and changemakers are already asking - and this book gives them real, clear, engaging answers.

Inside, young readers will discover:

  • What health economics is and why it matters to every single person on the planet
  • How hospitals, clinics, and healthcare systems are funded - and who foots the bill
  • Why medicine and treatments can be so expensive, and how pricing decisions are made
  • The economics of pharmaceuticals and how new drugs reach patients
  • How mental health affects productivity, families, and national economies
  • What pandemics like COVID-19 revealed about global health systems and financial fragility
  • Why healthcare inequality exists - and what communities are doing to close the gap
  • How technology and innovation are changing the cost and quality of care
  • What aging populations mean for future healthcare spending and policy
  • Where health economics is headed - and how today's kids can help shape it
