“Health care patients need more information,” says Halvorson. “They need to be able to make meaningful decisions that are fully informed by scientific evidence, and they need much more convenient access to care. The next generation of care is patient-focused, science-based care that is targeted towards improving care for each patient.”

Kaiser Permanente Chairman and CEO George Halvorson recently sat down with The CEO TV Show host Robert Reiss for a series of conversations about health care challenges, opportunities, and how Kaiser Permanente is a model for integrated medicine. The segments will air online beginning June 6, and continue throughout the summer.
In this first segment, “Healthcare Economics and Clinical Outcomes,” Halvorson explores the confounding economics of U.S. health care. “Part of the problem is that the business model of health care in this country is badly flawed,” he says. “We have twice as many heart attacks as we should have. We have twice as many kidney failures. We have twice as many asthma attacks. We actually have inferior care even though we spend more than anyone else in the world.”
Halvorson originally did an interview with Reiss for his quarterly publication The CEO Forum which led to these extended videotaped interviews.
