Interview: Philip Polakoff, ACS Healthcare Solutions
Health is a sense of complete physical, emotional, and social well-being, not merely the absence of infirmity and illness.
Interoperability, quality, and transparency are all important. On the prevention side, we are not putting enough energy into the issue. Smoking and obesity are on the rise. Our system is innefficient, inneffective, and no one is happy. Government can play a role as a bully pulpit.
Hopefully in the upcoming elections we will have an in depth discussion on health care, which we have not had in the past decade.
