The Medicare Report Card: Assessing Areas for Major Reform
Manage episode 377296070 series 2288292
The United States spends more money on healthcare than any other country in the world. In 2021, U.S. healthcare spending reached $4.3 trillion.
Medicare, which insures seniors, is America’s largest national health program, and therefore, it can and should be compared to its counterpart in other countries. So, how does the United States stack up?
How do outcomes in the United States compare for patients, and what kind of comparisons can we make from the point of view of the healthcare provider? Do doctors have it better in the United States, or in other places? What lessons can we learn? Where are the most urgent areas that need reform?
During the next live edition of Monitor Mondays, RACmonitor investigative reporter Edward M. Roche will examine U.S. healthcare in comparison with that of other countries, focusing on a number of dimensions, including cost, quality, outcomes, and ease of use.
Broadcast segments will include these instantly recognizable features:
- Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, vice president of R1 RCM, will make his Monday Rounds.
- The RAC Report: Healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel will report the latest news about auditors.
- Risky Business: Healthcare attorney David Glaser, shareholder in the law offices of Fredrikson & Byron, will join the broadcast with his trademark segment.
