+Higher utilization is not the issue
US has fewer hospitalizations, doctor visits
Tests and Procedures a mixed bag:
We do a lot more MRIs, TKRs, and PTCAs
We do fewer hip replacements
Bottom line:
We’re above average on some things
We’re below average on other things
On average, we are pretty average

To quote Uwe Reinhardt: It’s the prices, stupid

And that’s why we have made too little progress

+ 2021 won’t be big HC year
Three issues
1. No political appetite for radical changes
2. HC costs big issue – with specific areas of focus
1. Drugs
2. Out of network billing
3. Dems won’t want to waste big political capital
and GOP has no ideas for replacement!

+ Summary
The ACA has provided a starting point
Elegantly designed to target specific issues
Has increased coverage but not done much on costs
The Trump Administration has been active on C&Q
Continuing many of the ACA ideas
Pushing new ones
Tackling prices will be critical
2021 is not HC revolution – but an evolution towards a
better, more universal system
