    Executive SummaryUnlike ALIs previous our Think Tanks on Health, this Think Tank was an experiment. First, Think

    Tank participants heard rom speakers who provided background on the health care system in the

    United States, the issues associated with this system, how the U.S. health care system compares with

    that o other developed countries, and how the Affordable Care Act was implemented to bring about

    change. Think Tank participants then learned about systemic innovations taking place in Turkey and

    other countries around the world that are improving access to health care, the delivery o health care

    services, and the quality o care that is being delivered.

    Equipped with this background inormation, Think Tank

    participants then divided into seven smaller groups to answer

    the question, What do you want in a health care system?

    Groups were tasked with determining where the U.S.

    health care system should go, what values should guide this

    transormation, what major obstacles would impede progress,

    and what could be done to overcome these obstacles. In

    envisioning Americas uture health care system, Think Tank

    participants shared many common values and ideas.

    KEY THEMES

    Throughout the course o the Innovations in Health Think Tank, several major themes emerged.

    Among them were:

    The generally recognized goals of a health system are undamentally to improve the health opopulations, to provide health security and prevent impoverishment, and to provide patient orconsumer satisaction.

    The significance of health care.Health care represents % o the global economy and .% o

    U.S. GDP. As the population in developed countries ages, spending on healthcare will continue togrow. But behind the economic significance, health care affects peoples quality o lie and theirpersonal and financial security.

    Health care is delivered through a health system. A health system is all o the activities in asociety to promote, restore, or maintain health. Systems deliver the results that they are designedto deliver. Thereore, achieving different results requires changing the system.

    The health system in the United States is broken.While political leaders oten proclaim, TheU.S. has the best health care system in the world, this is not supported by the data. The U.Shas significant issuesand perorms below other countriesin terms o access, quality, cost,and equity. As the prevalence o chronic diseases grows, these issues will be exacerbated. Theseissues are systemic in nature and thereore require systemic solutions.

    Transformation is necessary in the United States. Isolated delivery systems in the UnitedStates work well, such as those o Kaiser and Mayo Clinic. While these systems deliver care inan integrated, team-based environment, the U.S. must bring about broad change throughoutthe entire national health system. The U.S. health system requires transormational change,not incremental repairs. The participants generally supported the Affordable Care Act (ACA)especially its goals o expanding coverage and changing reimbursement to be more value-basedbut it was only seen as a starting point. The ACA has addressed the problem o access,but not the challenge posed by cost. Political paralysis has hindered continual improvement tothis legislation. Additional steps are required to bring about transormation.

    Health care

    is systemic. Tosolve systemicissues is what itsall about . . . itsabout trying tosolve problemsthat really mat-ter and problemsthat really matterrequire systemicchallenges.

    3 Advanced Leadership Initiative

    Health system innovations are taking place around the world.Countries are transorming theirhealth systems. Turkey has achieved universal coverage and improved outcomes in a remarkablyshort period, based on strong government support or and leadership o transormation.The United Kingdom has transormed its health system, and transormative innovations aretaking place in countries such as France, Germany, the Netherlands, Brazil, and China. Thesetransormations oten involve financial support, changes in the reimbursement model (to global

    or bundled payment), use o technology, a community health ocus, and appropriate, well-trainedlabor. While the health systems o virtually all nations continue to ace difficult issues o long-term economic viability, no OECD country seems as stalled as the U.S. The U.S. can learn rom,and reapply, best practices rom around the world.

    A vision for Americas future health system is grounded in values of health equity, access,and shared responsibility.In imagining Americas uture health system, Think Tank participantssee not just a transormed system ocused on delivering care when individuals are sick, but asystem that promotes and spreads health and emphasizes wellness and prevention. Key valuesinclude viewing health care as a human right, implementing universal coverage and equitableaccess to care, and ensuring provider choice. Participants envision a health care system that isefficient, transparent, accountable, and effective. They also see a system grounded in real-worldeconomics, that is financially sustainable, and that deals with realities related to significant levelso spending at the end o a persons lie. They see shared responsibility between individuals and

    society.

    Obstacles to bringing about this transormation include lack o societal and institutionalreadiness to embrace change, encumbrances o the current system, including entrenched specialinterests that resist change, and a dysunctional political environment.

    Keys to overcoming these barriers include educating society on the need or transormationand activating society to bring about transormation. Other important areas o ocus includeemphasizing primary care, equipping providers with enabling technologies, experimenting withnew ways o doing things, using more data and inormation to make decisions, and creating a newworkorce o community health care workers who can coordinate care.

    CONCLUSION

    Americas health care system is broken. Fixing this system requires innovative, transormational,systemic changes. While special interests, political dysunction, and other obstacles to bringingabout transormational change are enormous, the good news is that examples o transormationalchange exist in countries around the world. Countries, such as Turkey, have made transormation otheir health care system a priority, demonstrated leadership, and brought about remarkable changein an incredibly short period o time, showing that transormational change on a large scale is indeedpossible.

    Background:

    Health Care is a SystemIn opening this Think Tank, Harvard School o Public Health proessor, ALI Co-Chair, and Think TankChair Barry Bloom emphasized the importance o health care, which represents % o the globaleconomy and .% o U.S. GDP.

    Bloom stressed that health care is delivered by a health system. He defined health systems as theinstitutional arrangements by which societies provide or health needs o their people, and cited theWorld Health Report , which said that health systems include all the activities whose primarypurpose is to promote, restore, or maintain health. The overarching goals o health systems are toimprove the populations health, provide health security, and provide patient satisaction.

    Health systems are complex and consist o many components, including the health workorce andhuman capacity, finance and resource allocation, management, governance, access to and delivery o

    quality health services, the public and private sectors, metrics and evaluation, and much more.

    Oten overlooked is that health systems have a moral premise, which varies rom country to country.The basic premises are that:

    Health is an individual responsibility.

    Health is a shared responsibility.

    Health is some combination of individual and shared responsibility.

    Not all health systems are equal; some perorm well, while others do not. Robin Osborn, the vicepresident and director o International Health Policy and Practice Innovations at the CommonwealthFund, said that political leaders may disagree about the attributes o high-perorming health systems,but patients have no problem identiying such attributes. She listed the ollowing as goals o high-

    perorming health systems:

    Best possible health outcomes or everyone.

    Accessto care or all.

    Excellent patient experiences: patient-centered, coordinated, high quality, sae care or all.

    Lower cost: accountable or use o resources and elimination o waste.

    Innovation.

    Learninghealth care system.

    Changing a complex health system to make it high perorming is extremely difficult. Proessor Bloom

    invoked Donald Berwick, ounder o the Institute or Healthcare Improvement, ormer Administratoro Medicare and Medicaid Services, and ALI ounding board member. Berwick has said that a basicprinciple o systems is that they are perectly designed to produce the results they achieve. Thereoreto change a systems level o achievement it is necessary to change the system.

    There is aundamentaltruth that is soobvious that it isnot understood.I you want agreater level oachievemento a complex

    The Consensus:

    Americas Health CareSystem is BrokenEquipped with a clear understanding that health care is deliv-ered via systems, several presenters examined how well Ameri-cas system is perorming. The overwhelming conclusion is thatthe U.S. health care system is underperorming along multipledimensions. Specifically:

    Costs.The U.S. currently spends two and a hal times theOrganisation or Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD) average, at more than $, per person per year. As a

    percentage o the economy, health care represents more than% o U.S. GDP, up rom around % in . Other developedcountries, such as Japan, Germany, France, and the U.K. were all in the % range in , buttoday, spending on health care has grown to represent just % to % o the economy. Per capitagovernment spending on health care in the U.S. exceeds that o other countries, but many othercountries cover everyone in the country and the U.S. government covers only about % o thepopulation. Higher costs are driven by higher prices. For example, a hip replacement in the U.S.costs more than $,, while costing around $, in England, France, and the Netherlands.

    Currently, % o all spending is on % o patients, % is on % o patients, and % is on % opatients. These tend to be older, sicker patients with chronic diseases. Also, about % o all spend-ing is on individuals who will die within one year. In contrast, just % o spending is on the % othe population that is healthiest.

    Coverage.As o , % o U.S. residents had private health insurance and % had insurancethrough a government program (mainly Medicare or Medicaid). About million people (% o thepopulation) lacked coverage. Among those with insurance, million were deemed underinsuredand vulnerable to high out-o-pocket expenses relative to their income. For example, Harvard pro-essor David Cutler shared data indicating that the typical American amily has a health insurancepolicy with a deductible o $,, yet has only $ o cash in their bank account.

    Access. The lack o insurance coverage and the high costs o the U.S. health system affect access tocare. In , % o Americans had cost-related barriers to accessing health care, compared to %in the U.K.; % o all Americans reported having serious problems or being unable to pay medicalbills, compared to just % in Canada and % in the U.K. Americans also report difficulty in sched-uling appointments with doctors and accessing non-emergency care ater hours. As a result, %o Americans went to the ER in the past two years, which is ar higher than any other developedcountry.

    Outcomes. High spending might be satisactory i the quality o and outcomes rom the U.S. healthcare system were better, but that is not the case. In , the U.S. ranked th among industrialized

    countries in lie expectancy. In the U.S. ranked th among countries. Health outcomes arepoor compared to other countries along several other important measures.

    The U.S. also has issues related to equity and lags behind other countries in the adoption o tech-nologies such as electronic medical records and the use o email by clinicians to communicate withpatients. However, where email is being used, it is postively affecting care and costs. For example, atKaiser Permanente, use o email has reduced office visits by about %.

    Excessive costs, low rates o coverage, limited access, inequity, and lagging outcomes indicate anincredibly poor value. As a result, % o Americans believe the health system should be completelyrebuilt, which is a dramatically higher rate than any other OECD country.

    The U.S. isclearly an outlierwhen it comes tospending.

    Health Care ReformOn March , , President Obama signed the Patient Protectionand Affordable Care Act (ACA) into law. Several Think Tank presentersdiscussed the goals o health care reorm, key elements o this legislation,and progress thus ar. Proessor Bloom said the priorities or health reormare broad and include increasing access, quality, value, and equity, whileimproving the health o the population.

    Proessor Cutler stated that Obamacare ocuses mainly on coveringpeople, regulating insurance, and paying or this through various attemptsto reduce costs. John McDonough, previously a Massachusetts statelegislator, a ormer health care policy advisor to Senator Ted Kennedy,integral player in health reorm in Massachusetts and nationally, and nowa proessor at the Harvard School o Public Health, said that the ACA is acomplex bill with sections, only one o which deals with private healthinsurance coverage.

    Key strategies o ACA include:

    Expanding insuranceto the uninsured.

    Improving the integrationo health care services.

    Providing incentivesor improved perormance.

    Routinely collecting dataon outcomes and costs.

    Delivering care through teamsthat are responsible or improved value.

    Implementing new toolsto improve care, such as comparative effectiveness.

    ACA innovations include accountable care organizations (ACOs), patient-centered medical homes(PCMHs), health exchanges, bundled payments, global budgets, comparative effectiveness research,telemedicine, and much more. Concepts such as ACOs, bundled payments, and global budgets all aimto shit rom the volume-based ee-or-service system to a system ocused on quality and improvingthe health o the population.

    ACA is still early in the implementation process, and there have been bumps along the way, but morethan six million individuals have signed up or health insurance, which is in line with expectations,and the costs o implementing ACA have, thus ar, been ar lower than predicted. Also, aspects o ACAare driving significant changes in care delivery. For example, payment reductions to hospitals basedon excessive readmission rates have gotten the attention o all hospital executives. Every hospitalnow aims to reduce their readmissions with initiatives underway to do so. As a result, in a relativelyshort period o time, or the first time in history, the rate o hospital readmission has declined nation-

    ally. But that means that patients must be discharged to continuing care in the community which isoten lacking.

    While many Think Tank participants agree the ACA has helped to initiate change and serves as agood start, they also believe it is not a undamental enough transormation o the U.S. health caresystem.

    7 Advanced Leadership Initiative

    Bringing About Policy ChangesUsing health reorm in Massachusetts and nationwide as exam-ples, Proessor McDonough provided a real-world perspective onhow policy change actually comes about. He shared three ideas:

    Past dependence. Policy is not linear or necessarily stream-lined. Policy undergoes an evolutionary process where eachpolicy action is dependent on all previous policy actions.For example, the passage o health care reorm in Massa-chusetts in came ater much effort and work. Under-standing this policy requires understanding the history andcontext surrounding it, which goes back to at least .Policies arent developed out o thin air; they are dependent on their context.

    Punctuated equilibrium. The general perception is that policy is developed and evolves in alinear, incremental manner. But this isnt always the case. At times the status quo is rapidly dis-rupted and a new order is created; new government institutions are created and existing ones are

    abandoned or transormed. Two criteria are necessary or punctuated equilibrium to occur:

    Development of a robust replacement idea. A new, different and contextually appropriatepolicy must be created.

    Dissolution of the existing policy monopoly.Once established, a policy is supported bya group o invested stakeholders. For punctuated equilibrium to occur, the supporters ora policy need to lose aith in it, creating the opportunity or transormational change.

    Continuous policy improvement. Don Berwick, who studied the quality movement and com-panies such as Toyota, brought concepts o continuous improvement to health care. No matterhow good an organization, opportunities to improve quality, efficiency, and systems are alwaysavailable.

    The same idea applies to policy, legislation, and regulation. New legislation creates a oundation

    and initiates a continuous improvement cycle. Typically, even when ederal legislation is passed, itis prone to regular updates, oten annually - both big and little changes all contribute to ongoingimprovement. However, because o the political dissension that currently exists, no such eed-back and improvement process exists or the ACA. For example, with a ew years o experience,much has been learned about the specific readmissions penalties enacted. Typically, this learningwould be reflected in new and improved rules. But the current toxic environment is hinderingthat improvement.

    You cant just go

    rom the NorthPole to theSouth Pole; youactually haveto go througha process inwhere you wantto go has tobe understoodwithin thecontext o whereyou are, notwhere you wishto be.

    Health System

    Transformation in TurkeyWhile the Affordable Care Act is not seen as transormational in the United States, reorm activitiesin Turkey have been transormational.

    As a country, Turkey has a relatively young population and over the pastdecade has enjoyed strong economic growth. Even as global economicgrowth has slowed, Turkeys economy grew more than % in and, and is currently growing in the % range.

    However, Turkey had lacked a robust health care system. Even thoughthe countrys constitution articulated health care as a undamental right,the country had not delivered on this right. The journey to universalhealth coverage began in , but little progress was made or many

    years. Throughout the s and s there was economic and politi-cal instability. There was inadequate allocation o resources, inequitableoutcomes, lack o political leadership, and a dysunctional governmentthat was unable to respond to catastrophic events. There were significantregional disparities and little growth in the health care labor orce. Duringthis time, the expectations o citizens rose, as did their dissatisaction withthe current health system.

    Finally, in the early s, the Turkish government decided that transorming the health care systemwas a national priority. There was strong leadership support or a rapid transormation in achievinguniversal coverage within three years. Several policy changes ensued, including:

    Changes in governance in redefining the role o the Ministry o Health to be a policymaker andregulator; not a provider.

    Changes in financing, with significant increases in health expenditures, a consolidation o in-surance schemes, and rapid expansion o coverage. From to , spending per capita onhealth care virtually doubled.

    Expansion o staff and o provider contracting to add human resources. From to , thetotal number o staff employed or contracted by the Ministry o Health almost doubled.

    Expansion o health care services, with a ocus on community-based services and services orchildren.

    Specific elements o the health transormation program in Turkey were:

    A comprehensive strategy inormed by evidence and global experience.

    Continuous monitoring, learning, and improvement.

    Flexible implementation.

    Focus on user satisaction (measured through surveys) and receptivity about the context orchange.

    Implementation that was led by a pragmatic and responsive transormation team.

    As a result o these policy changes and government ocus, universal coverage was achieved in a three-year period. Mortality has improved and out-o-pocket health expenditures as a share o householdexpenditures have declined. Public satisaction with health services has increased.

    The key toTurkeys successhas been thegovernmentswillingness toinvest in health.

    Key lessons rom Turkeys transormational experience include:

    Creating a receptive context is essential.In Turkey, this context resulted rom political stability,economic growth and stability, and strong and sustained leadership support. The context orchange was supported by the belie that health is a undamental right and by the prioritization ohealth by the government.

    Executing change requires a focused transformation team.The success in Turkey was driven bya dedicated transormation team that was solely ocused on executing this transormation.

    Allowing for implementation to be flexible. Turkey allowed or flexibility in execution o chang-es, with ongoing learning.

    Combining demand-side and supply-side changes.Universal coverage increased the demand orhealth care services, but just increasing demand was not enough to transorm the health caresystem. Turkey also increased the supply o services and the health care labor orce, including en-gaging private sector companies and contracting or services. Turkey invested in service deliveryinnovations rather than hospitals, especially to serve the poor in remote areas.

    Thinking of health, not health care. Most health care systems ocus on, and pay or, the treat-ment o diseases. A transormative mindset is to ocus on health.

    Going orward, challenges in Turkey include continuing health investment, sustaining insurance cov-erage, improving the equity o the health care system, and managing public expectations. In addition,Turkey must prepare or and better manage chronic diseases, cultivate a health workorce, improve inthe areas o quality and saety, and oster even greater innovation.

    The main lesson rom Turkey is that an entire system can be transormed when made a governmentpriority that is strongly supported by leaders, provided adequate unding, and staffed with appropriateresources.

    Other Health SystemInnovationsInnovative ideas implemented around the world were also highlighted at this Think Tank on Innova-tions in Health. Among the innovations discussed, the transormation o the Turkish health systemreceived the most attention, but several other innovative initiatives rom around the world were alsomentioned, including innovations in both developed and developing countries. These included:

    Virtual wards (U.K.). The aim o this program is to enable patients with multiple chronic condi-tions and other complex needs to be managed in their homes. The program uses predictive riskmodeling to identiy patients at the greatest risk o uture hospitalization, and provides a nursecase manager and a single point o contact or use by patients, to improve care and reduce hospi-tal costs. The program uses a shared EMR, and every night, all virtual ward patients are sharedwith local hospitals and ater-hours services.

    Value-based care (France and Germany). In France, a patients drug copayments are adjustedbased on a drugs therapeutic value, but treatments or chronic diseases have no copayments,encouraging patients to use the appropriate treatment. In Germany, assessments determine cov-erage and prices.

    Support network for mental health (U.K.). This is a community o coaches, clinicians, and peersto help patients sel-manage their care. The U.K.s National Health Service (NHS) has desig-nated this a high-impact innovation and it has produced great success, with % o memberssel-managing their psychological issues, % reporting an improvement in mental health, a %adherence rate, and significant savings.

    Disease and device registries (Sweden). Nearly government-supported registries allow orthe collection o longitudinal health outcome data that is used to establish best practices andimprove the value o the health care system.

    After-hours care (Netherlands). Large-scale ater-hours primary care cooperatives have been

    developed in the Netherlands, with nurse phone triage and physician backup. Some allow orwalk-in visits and have house calls. This service uses evidence-based protocols and guidelines. Ithas increased primary care contact by % while reducing ER visits by % and use o ambulanc-es by %.

    Family Health Program (Brazil). This program provides primary care to % o the population inBrazil at a cost o $$ per year, ree to patients at the point o care. Each site has a multidis-ciplinary team and community health workers who are each responsible or up to amilies;over , community health workers have been recruited in the past years. Inant mortali-ty has been reduced by %.

    Medicall (Mexico). This service in Mexico provides / phone-based access to individualsto provide advice with health problems. This call center, which serves the entire country, usesprotocols developed by the Cleveland Clinic. Over million people pay $ per month or the ser-vice, and two thirds o calls are treated on the phone immediately. When callers cant be treatedover the phone, they are reerred to appropriate providers. This provides a high-value, low-costsolution.

    Narayana Hrudayalay Hospital (India). This hospital in India perorms more than , openheart surgeries per year, with outcomes that are comparable to the best hospitals in the world, ata breakeven cost o $, per surgery. The ocus and scale allow or purchasing supplies at lowcost and continuous improvement o operations.

    These innovations prove that much can be learned rom studying the best practices and innovativeprograms rom other countries, and that learnings rom around the world can be applied to improvethe U.S. health care system.

    Designing the Ideal U.S.

    Health Care SystemALI Think Tank participants divided into seven groups, witheach group asked to determine: what they wanted the healthcare system to do, the underlying values o the health system,the obstacles in achieving this vision, and how barriers could beovercome. Groups were also asked to come up with unique, novelideas. There were many similarities in the vision, values, obsta-cles, and suggestions o these groups.

    SITUATION

    Think Tank participants concur that the current U.S. health care system is broken and must undergoundamental transormation o the system through a transormation agenda. The ACA can serve as astarting point, but ACA is not transormational enough.

    VISION

    Participants envision a healthy society that promotes and en-courages good health, based on the belie that healthy peoplemake a stronger society. This idea is transormative compared totodays health care system that ocuses on treating sickness anddisease.

    VALUES

    Values that support this vision include the belies that:

    Everyone should have universal and equal access to health, as it is a human right.

    The health system must include wellness and prevention, and not just treatment o diseases.

    The health system must be able to be paid or by the country within its means.

    Individuals should have reedom o provider choice.

    The health system should be efficient, transparent, and effective.

    There should be individual accountability and responsibility.

    OBSTACLES

    Bringing about this vision wont be easy. Major obstacles include:

    Recognition that transormation must start with the current system.

    Entrenched special interests will be resistant to change.

    Lack o social readiness, as about % o the population is satisfied with the current system andwill be averse to change. Also, there is huge distrust and lack o cultural readiness or change.

    Lack o societal ocus and investment or prevention and wellness. We dont penalize unhealthychoices or reward healthy ones, and we incentivize intensive treatment o diseases.

    Reusal to deal with end-o-lie issues.

    Reducing waste means cutting someones income.

    Political dysunction and a divided Congress.

    OVERCOMING BARRIERS

    Among the ideas shared or overcoming these barriers were:

    Create new types of community-based health care services and workers. In particular, as othercountries have done, the United States needs more community-based health workers to provideand coordinate care. This includes nurses and individuals who serve as advocates and guides.Examples include programs in Brazil and Turkey, as well as programs such as Teach or America.

    Use technology to enable these community-based workers. This includes smart phones withhealth apps, along with appropriate training on the use o technology.

    Engage in societal activation. Society needs to be educated and engaged to create readiness or

    transormative change. This includes showcasing successes, ostering more local experimenta-tion, and having greater transparency about outcomes and costs.

    Have a more enlightened approach to regulation.There is unnecessary regulation intended toprotect citizens. But it goes too ar and adds cost and complexity.

    Aggregate high-quality data.This data can be used to help make better judgments.

    UNIQUE IDEAS

    Several groups came up with unique ideas to try to improve health and the health care system.Among them:

    Deliver care through schools. This can include primary care and preventive care. By delivering

    care through schools, children can be diagnosed and treated, when otherwise various ailmentsmight have gone undiagnosed.

    Make the use o data and quality part o the accreditation process.

    Create a national health care commission. Analogies include the Federal Reserve and the FCC.Such a commission could have members representing diverse stakeholder groups. Non-po-litical appointees would have a term o perhaps years.

    Provide more incentives or good behavior, wellness, and prevention.

    Freeze health spending as a percentage o GDP.

    Engage in partial means testing or health care benefits.

    Collect taxes rom non-profit hospitals.

    Pursue tort reorm.

    Change medical education and training.
