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

An experiment In mother and child care delivers results
In India failing to provide public health services in the state of Gujrat they contracted OBs GNY practitioners in private practice.They compensated them at on average cost of rupees 1795 per delivery which is about 40 dollars .In US average cost of a child birth may be in excess of 12000 dollars.
In the process many practitioners were able to improve their earnings to 20000 dollars per year which is a handsome ammount.
This is not a silver bullet to the problem .With a shortage of services and many times money to pay for it A complicated pregnancy can ruin the finances of a family and put them in a downward spiral of financial ruin.The government has made a leap in service and is providing solutions out of the box .Mixing the public and private for the public good.
It would be good if in America we could get some benefits of the systems they are creating for the universal problems we all share.
May be their are solutions Like unique Identification they are creating in India .Security of personal data is very critical in our society.Hope we can help each other from the experiences we have and develop. It is always important to use just enough medicine to treat the ailment.
