Where there is a will there is a way. I listened to a very informative podcast this am, The Pediatric Lounge, and learned from Dr. Ge Bai on #healthcare finance. She provides solid action to take. Highlights: 1-a competitive market is crucial for driving innovation, effective care, and affordability in healthcare.  2- a lack of a competitive healthcare market causes independent practices and practitioners towards consolidation or acquisition by private equity firms or large systems--- compromising patient choice and quality of care. 3-a weak public health system and little investment in preventive care exacerbates our poor performing and expensive healthcare system in the U.S. How to transform: -Physicians (independent) are key to transform healthcare systems through innovation that is sparked by proper incentives and flexible payment programs (practice transformation). -Regulatory reforms to level the playing field for small businesses and independent practices, fostering competition and innovation. -Empower patients with direct transactions and incentives to make informed choices about their healthcare. Patients need cost transparency and cost decisions beyond a co-pay (think of automobiles purchasing and insurance costs linked to type of car, driving record, location, age, gender...) -Invest in public health initiatives and preventive care to proactively address health issues and reduce long-term costs (enough said). -Shift in the role of insurance companies from transaction managers to true health risk managers, align insurance companies' incentives with better health outcomes, not just profits. As Dr. Bai rightfully stated, "physicians hold the potential to drive meaningful change in the healthcare market. By raising awareness, building political will, and advocating for a patient-centric system, we can reclaim healthcare from corporate greed and ensure a healthier, more equitable future for all Americans." #UsingWhatWeHaveBetter https://lnkd.in/gJD9-QJh
