About this Event
Research, Policy, and Philanthropy’s Role to Achieve Affordable Health Care: At 18% of GDP and growing, US health care spending per person is twice as high as other wealthy countries and yields lower quality outcomes. Rising costs have created an affordability crisis for patients, employers, and taxpayers. Publicly financed health care spending has consistently risen more quickly than our economy – contributing to the growing national debt. Left unaddressed, Americans will face major benefit reductions, squeezed budgets, and higher taxes. Join Mark E. Miller, Executive Vice President of Health Care at the philanthropy Arnold Ventures, for a discussion about drivers of health care costs, the policies that can help achieve a more affordable system, and the important role of research, policy, and philanthropy.
