Misperception: Technology Drives Health Care Costs
Trend #5Our Biggest Challenge
“The bulk of the long-term rise in health costs resulted from...new medical services that were made possible by technological advances...”
“Future increases in spending could be moderated if costly new medical services were adopted more selectively...than they have in the past and if diffusion of existing costly services was slowed.”
![Page 16: Trends Affecting the Medical Technology Industry Stephen J. Ubl President and CEO, AdvaMed March 27, 2008.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062618/55146f0e550346494e8b5f6a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Our Response:Four-Pronged Approach
1. Medical technology reduces health care costs
• Testing hospitalized patients for drug-resistant infections = $8.3 billion in savings in 2005
• Medical imaging to diagnose & treat stroke yields savings of $800 million per year
• Total knee replacements save $77,000 per patient in lifetime health care costs

Our Response:Four-Pronged Approach
2. Medical technology generates real economic value
• From 1970 to 1998, improvements to life expectancy from cardiovascular care advancements alone added
$2.6 trillion per year to U.S. wealth
• Nearly half of GDP for this period

Our Response:Four-Pronged Approach
3. Focus on the root causes of cost growth
• Fee-for-service systems reward providers for delivering more care – not better care
• Lack of effective prevention measures
• Costs of chronic disease
• Inefficiency in the health care system

Our Response:Four-Pronged Approach
4. Quality of life improvements due tomedical technology are priceless
• Medicare inpatient payment rates FY 2007– Cochlear implant = $8,650– Knee replacement = $9,281– ICD = $28,886

In closing...
• Push for health care reform & budgetary pressures = continued spotlight on medical technology’s role in health care
• We intend to have a seat at the table. We will fight for a health care system that provides access to quality medical care for all.
• Policy decisions over the next 25 months could affect the industry for the next 25 years...

Two roads...
Static road vs. dynamic road
• Slowed innovation, rationed care, short-term price cuts, growing ranks of uninsured, or...
• Emphasis on health promotion/disease prevention, focus on quality, more efficient delivery system, quality health care for all
