If the furious debate around the state of healthcare in the US has
led to any consensus, it's that the system should be delivering
better quality for less cost than it does. The truth is that our
healthcare system is a sprawling mix of competing interests in
which those of the patient are valued least. Too much discussion
has devolved to simplistic scapegoating, and too few comprehensive,
constructive solutions have been offered. It's time for a fresh
vision. In straightforward language, Healthcare at a Turning Point:
A Roadmap for Change outlines a new market-based business model
that aligns industry financing mechanisms with the goals of
prevention, improved quality, and reduced costs. Drawing on more
than 25 years of cross-industry consulting experience, the authors:
Articulate a market-based vision of the industry Examine past
efforts to reduce costs, their failures and their unanticipated
consequences Spotlight perverse incentives that distort the way the
healthcare system operates and make it less than it could be
Present concrete recommendations for change within the healthcare
delivery, insurance, pharmaceutical, device and diagnostics sectors
Explain the changes that employers, consumers and policy makers can
make to create a more customer-responsive system that delivers more
value For all the uncertainty in the current environment, there is
also a rare opportunity to fundamentally redefine who wins in this
market. Healthcare at a Turning Point provides guidance to
executives ready for that contest as well as a roadmap for change.
