Healthcare: Beyond The Insurance Coverage Debate

Season 3 Episode 304 | 26m 46s

Given the spending of the American healthcare system, why are health outcomes not better than these lesser spending nations? Our panel explores issues including why healthcare in the US costs so much more than other advanced countries, without achieving better outcomes and whether the coming digital/mobile advances in healthcare delivery can improve quality and reduce costs.
