The wellness and prevention market will outgrow the health care market.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We do not have a functioning market in the true sense of the word in health care. That's a layer of transparency that's sorely needed in America.
Investing in health will produce enormous benefits.
Individuals will achieve healthier lifestyles when prevention and wellness programs are accessible and available in their workplace, through their health provider, and in their communities.
If your access to health care involves your leaving work and driving somewhere and parking and waiting for a long time, that's not going to promote healthiness.
I believe we can incentivize more affordable health care in general by better regulating insurance and creating meaningful competition for health care services.
I want to give consumers way more choices in health care. Choice and competition always drive down costs better than central control.
Prevention is one of the few known ways to reduce demand for health and aged care services.
In other words we have marketed our way into this health crisis.
I'm no health care expert, but you've got technology that constantly advances the ability to extend life and maybe improve lifestyle. That puts constant upward pressure on health care costs.
Health care's like any other product or service: if the consumer is in charge of spending his money on it, then the market will make sure that it is affordable.
