Health Care is Broken

   9/21/13
You already know that. So what's the big deal?  Talked today with a guy who's graduating with a Public Health Degree from a very  prestigious local University. Asked him how he liked his studies .. kinda shook his head, no apparent enthusiasm for what he's studying .. spoke about how bad the system is Big Pharma, Insurance Companies etc.  This guy is going on to study Pediatric Medicine.  That's great. What's awful is before he gets to med school, he's spent 4 years of his life and accumulated $150K in debt .. and for what? .. to learn about an inefficient,  politically based, blouted wasteful system.  A system overripe for creative destruction.  And now I'm real excited about some ideas stemming from these experiences that I think could make a real, maybe huge, difference. And even more exciting? I think I can launch these ideas and get them implemented.  More on this later.
