Comment on Why US Healthcare sucks and how I’m trying to change itparent

Comments

You are betting that patient engagement in their own health will be high, particularly for the high cost, at risk patients. This has been historically proven not to be the case.

The commonest reason for transplanted organ failure is that the patient isn't compliant with medication.

This happens in UK (free surgery, free meds) and US (expensive surgery, expensive meds).

It's weird.
