Healthcare is becoming increasingly more expensive for employers and individuals.
The current trend of cost escalation is not considered to be sustainable.
This results from a number of misaligned economic incentives, which do not deliver a coordinated, efficient system of healthcare. It is our intention to study and recommend improvements to the current system that will result in the following.
- Affordable insurance for small medium and large organizations
- Enhanced personal accountability for health and lifestyle choices
- A better defined value proposition. (How do we define value in health care?)
- A rational way to deliver health care.
