We spend almost twice as much, per-person, as any other nation closing in on 17.9 percent of our gross national product, yet it is hard to prove if we are any healthier.

Healthcare’s value-based purchasing increasingly favors a population-centric approach to health management, identifying risk across the care continuum.
