- Synopsis
- Government has a major influence on the health care system in the U.S. State and federal policy makers set numerous rules and regulations that affect the nature of competition in health care, as well as incentives and constraints for system participants. Health care policy has been both a reflection of and a contributor to the zero-sum competition that plagues the current system. According to the authors, the fundamental flaw in U.S. health care policy is its lack of focus on patient value and absence of an overall framework to guide reforms. In this chapter, Porter and Teisberg sketch out a framework for health care reform that is centered on value for patients.
