Global Perspectives: Mike Leavitt on Health Care Costs and Higher Education

Dallas Fed Economics from Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas

Abstract: The U.S. health care system is uniquely innovative, but it is also arguably uniquely inefficient. Health outcomes in the U.S.—whether measured in terms of simple metrics such as life expectancy or more sophisticated ones such as quality-adjusted life years—do not seem commensurate with health care expenditures.
