Curing the Health System (14:55–15:45)

 

An aging population, rising costs, and new diseases are providing major challenges to our healthcare system.


-  With rising cost pressures, new strains of diseases, and a growing global population, is healthcare sustainable?

 

-  Is it possible for the healthcare system to continue improving without exerting cost pressures on patients or insurers?

 

-  How have poor lifestyle choices and nutrition contributed to disease and preventable deaths in both the rich and poor worlds?

 

-  How have recent innovations improved the healthcare space?
