Obama Care Vs "My" Care: How My 75/75/75 Rule Wins!

    By last week, the media, and respectfully, is one of the holes donut care reimbursement for medical expenses, black holes and others are trying to demonstrate how to modify some of the key ways can lead to better health outcomes, forever.

Last week, President Obama has made clear he favors reform, health care, the government playing the role here is very important indeed. That's why I want the brakes to my blog "donut hole" to solve this problem, just this once, and I'm back ... doing donuts next time.

Firstly, to use some of the statistics in advance. It is a known fact that Americans spent 18% of GDP on health care in 2009. But what is bad? Some people argue that we do not spend enough. Listen, all of us to use a larger portion of our mortgages, our cars, etc., and the question is: what is the most important purchase in your life? It is health care, a good thing that keeps us alive, so that we can use other elements. I do not think the issue is the amount we spend much more than what it used to buy us. It is my position, which is used in conjunction with consumer behavior.

It is alleged that 75% of health spending have been obtained for certain behaviors. Another argument is that 75% of the total cost may be less than half a dozen diseases, including diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease and cancer. In addition, approximately 75% of these diseases are preventable, which is what I tried to show through the hole donut round of discussions. Thus, the rule of magic control health spending and improved health outcomes is 75/75/75. May it take to start changing behavior, which subsequently leads to better outcomes and prevention, which is to produce cost savings.

So the question is how can we change behavior? Well, the model already exists in various forms and is currently in use is the side of providers. It goes without saying that it must implement the consumer side. At its simplest, each company to develop a personal calendar for each employee, special incentives - and rewards, and things like sports, weight reduction, cholesterol management, and other indicators. Used in accordance with the model results and is based on the results of these workers receive rewards such as discounts, etc.

Enjoy the design is modified to capture the so-called "QALY" or more (or expected) quality-adjusted life years of personal profits by changing behavior. Pharmacoeconomic comparison, these figures are systematically calculated in the treatment of various drugs, which are pharmaceutical companies, the missing link is the premium consumer. If I change my behavior and abandon obesity, I should be rewarded for avoiding the costs of this disease.

Interest of behavior change, a mandate based on the following rule 75/75/75: 75/75/75 rule produces better health outcomes and cost savings as well, forever. Politically artificial - will never compromise the parties for the government, its unfair, unsustainable costs and questionable results is a quick solution, and plates produced by bad habits that require more repairs. Et oui vous guested, réparations trop nombreux qui ne sont rien d'incorrect, il est ... confirmed.
