Bernard Tyson, CEO of Kaiser Permanente, sees a modern, efficient health system in America’s future, according to an article on the Fortune website.
A few of his key points include:
• Medical institutions have to focus on patient outcomes, not healthcare inputs (like how many CT scans and blood tests a physician orders)
• Changing American behaviors will change American healthcare. Medical professionals can be rewarded for guiding people into making behavioral choices that are likelier to keep them well.
• Tyson expects the number of digital check-ups to grow. It’s especially good for seniors with chronic conditions
