Health care costs are now rising faster than inflation, wages, and the overall economy. Government programs are being scaled back rather than expanding to cover these costs. To make progress, we need to focus on the delivery of medical care and insist that payment be tied to the value of the services. Two of the country’s leading experts on redesigning U.S. health care to focus on value will join us for a discussion with Minnesota legislators to identify a practical agenda for action.
