“we have by far the most complicated system in the world. no one completely understands it.”

stuart altman, professor of national health policy at the heller school at brandeis university

we know the symptoms: more than 46 million americans are uninsured. the quality of health care isn’t what it should be, and costs are going through the roof.

but what’s the prognosis? where’s the us health system headed in the next five years? and what’s in store for you as a future health professional?

a veteran trend-spotter who’s served presidents as different as nixon and clinton--and who’s lately had the ear of barack obama--will join us for the next ihi open school on call audio conference. clay ackerly, a fourth-year medical student at duke university, will moderate the call. join us! to participate, please register in advance. note: registration is required. (please record the passcode you are assigned during registration. you will need it to join the call.)"
