FixingHealthCare

Most hospitals are designedfor the nineteenth century.Most doctors don’t know how to share power. Most patientswith complicated problemsdon’t receive coordinated care.It’s time for a revolution – led from within.

Harvard Business Review April 2010

Premium Price, Poor Performance

The United States spends more on health care per capita – by far – than any of the other OECD countries…yet it ranks at the bottom 25% of those countries on life expectancy.

Statement on the PCMH:President Obama

“I support the concept of a patient-centered medical home, and as part of my health care plan, I will encourage and provide appropriate payment for providers who implement the medical home model, including physician-directed, interdisciplinary teams, care management and care coordination programs, quality assurance mechanisms, and health IT systems which collectively will help to improve care.”

President Barack Obama
