Discussion Post: What Drives Healthcare Spending
Consider the relationship between healthcare costs and consumer behavior. Include the following aspects in the discussion:
1) After reviewing the Synopsis version, focus on the Consumers and the human experience section.
2) In a few short sentences, this report asserts that healthcare consumers have needs, goals, preferences, demands, and expectations. Do you agree with this? Why or why not?
3) Share what your needs, goals, preferences, demands, and expectations are.
4) Discuss the impact these consumer drivers have on healthcare costs.
5) Do you think the US can afford to meet consumer needs, goals, preferences, demands, and expectations? If not, how would the system ration each so it was affordable?
