About the Program
In May 2016, a study from Johns Hopkins revealed that about 250,000 deaths per year in the United States were due to medical errors, making medical errors the third leading cause of death at that time in the US, after heart disease and cancer.
On the other hand, our per capita annual healthcare cost is approximately $8,713. At a total spend of $3 trillion per year, or 18 percent of the national economy; the US healthcare system is the most expensive in the world yet is failing us when it comes to providing the best quality outcomes.
Where is the disconnect? We do not lack resources, we have the best surgical procedures in the world, the best medications money can buy, the world’s best imaging techniques, etc. Why do we fail our citizens in providing the best quality of care?
