Healthcare will be solved by startups. It will be slow and unnoticeable and then it will be all at once. Some of the biggest companies that don’t exist yet will be healthcare startups. https://t.co/Vumn78EwYc

The least surprising, but very disappointing, news of the day. If three massive employers can’t figure out how to exert power on payers and providers, harder to effectuate successful market-based strategies to lower cost and improve quality in ESI. https://t.co/3dTSFi2b5r

Remember that plan from three of the most "successful" capitalists to "disrupt" US health coverage and make it simpler? They failed to make it work even in their own companies. Never tell me again that "the private sector should be kept in the mix" #m4a https://t.co/ENFhHmJTO8
