520 |a Healthcare in the U.S. is at a critical juncture. We face a continued upward spiral in the number of people with chronic diseases and disabilities. As demands on our current health system grow, so will costs. But as a society we are approaching the upper limit of how much we are willing (or able) to spend on health care. Health care industry leaders and policy makers know this. That is why they have embraced the so-called Second Curve focus on population health and value-based care. But these initiatives will not achieve the desired results. They are being implemented within an overall industry that is structurally dysfunctional. We are not addressing the root causes of this dyfunction. We are asking a system to do things that it was simply not designed to do.
