Inefficiency Hurts U.S. In Ranking of Health

Whereas in the U.S. we have a highly inefficient health system that’s taking away financial resources from other lifesaving programs.”

New study has found that our health care cost has increased three fold in last 30 or so years and we have not improved the ranking on the health in the world.This is based on study of many advanced countries of the world.We have most expensive health care system which fails to deliver us the services.

We have reduced smoking in our population .Our ranking remains terrible 49 th in the world.

We will have to improve the health care delivery and efficiency in our system so we may control cost and deliver better care for our patients(that is us).I see it happening with EMR mandate and meaningful use part of it which will benefit us tremendously
