(vice chairman-Pharmaceuticals of GlaxoSmithKline)
Individuals don’t come into their doctors offices as Republicans, Democrat, or Independents they come into their office as individuals.
Driving Healthcare costs: 45% of Americans have a chronic healthcare need. We live in a society that believes in fixing the problem once it is there and not curing or preventing the problems before they start. We need to change our way of looking at moving to a PREVENTION system then INTERVENTION. Not just putting a Band-Aid on the problem once it is there.
$1.6 trillion is spent each year on healthcare in the US today. 75% of that cost is treating chronic diseases. An estimated 50% of that is preventable.
