CHSPR - University of British Columbia: 2011 Health Policy Conference BOOMERANGST: Myths and Realities about health care for an aging population (Lewis/Berwick quote...)



Note: 

1) includes influence of cancer/aging/demographics

2)  referenced via Hsien Seow presentation:
"Inbalance. Not by chance.
(Don Berwick quote: every system is perfectly designed to produce exactly the results it gets.  A systematic issue.)
We have a system that provide PC only when patients are “dying” or at EOL. – actively dying."
