$0.6 Trillion

$1.2 Trillion

$9 Billion

Approximately $1.8 Trillion spent by US Healthcare annually

$0.6 Trillion of these expenses can be attributed to genetic make up of people

The remaining $1.2 Trillion is attributed to poor lifestyle choices – people not taking care of themselves

Yet, only 0.5% of the total spending in healthcare is directed towards helping people better manage their health.

Why?



You can’t manage what you can’t measure.



What If…

4. DARPA is knowledgeable about wearable body monitoring, but is focused so far out (10 years+) that their support has no medium term public health implications. NIH is not widely knowledgable about wearable body monitoring. SBIR’s are more trouble than they’re worth.

Help find ways to support more research in how these technologies can be used to create outcomes improvements in the population.

How Can The Government Help?

1. Create reimbursement codes to help support the chronically ill (diabetes, CHF, asthma, COPD, etc.) in using long term body monitoring-assisted lifestyle coaching associated with managing their conditions

3. Widen the definition of tax-deductible healthcare expenses to include products and services like body monitoring no matter what stage of their conditions the taxpayer currently is.

2. Ensure that Health Savings Accounts (HSA’s) can be used for body monitoring products and associated services
