SUMMARY:Tearing Down Health Care to Rebuild It for Everyone
DESCRIPTION:Massachusetts Institute of Technology health economist Amy Finkelstein was joined by Mark McClellan\, former commissioner of the US Food and Drug Administration and current Duke professor\, and Joshua Gottlieb\, professor at the Harris School\, to discuss how to effectively reform US health insurance. Michael Greenstone\, Director of the Becker Friedman Institute\, moderated this discussion. Finkelstein was a 2023-2024 TC Liu Distinguished Visitor at BFI. \n\nMost observers are convinced that America’s healthcare system needs reform. However\, reform proposals and debates rarely articulate a clear goal for reform. That’s where Amy Finkelstein’s new book “We’ve Got You Covered: Rebooting American Health Care” (with co-author\, Liran Einav) argues we have to begin. They argue that US policy history -and current US policy – reveal an unwritten social contract\, “the enduring\, but unwritten\, social norm that the US has been trying—but failing—to fulfill: universal access to essential\, basic health care\, regardless of a patient’s resources… it’s time to go back to the drawing board and finally do it right.” In her presentation and following discussion\, Finkelstein discussed her original and provocative blueprint for reform\, and why it can work.
