Grey Lit: Realigning U.S. Health Care Incentives to Better Serve Patients and Taxpayers - Len M. Nichols with Health CEOs for Health Reform

Introduction:

Our nation has an obligation to make sure everyone has quality, affordable health coverage. However, coverage will not be sustainable unless we refocus our delivery system on patients, improve quality, and increase efficiency.

Transforming our delivery system is good public policy and a necessary component of fiscal responsibility. Yet, we will not slow the rate of health care cost growth until we create stronger incentives for providers - the people who deliver care - to focus on quality and efficiency.

Please join the New America Foundation Health Policy Program and Health CEOs for Health Reform (HC4HR) as we discuss transformative, patient-centered reforms. HC4HR leaders will explain how bold incentives can make health care affordable and how their own experience proves a sustainable, value-based system is achievable.
