Our new white paper, “A Path to Eliminating $3.6 Trillion in Wasteful Healthcare Spending,” charts a course for the U.S. healthcare industry to eliminate $3.6 trillion in healthcare waste over the next 10 years by addressing a series of operational inefficiencies. Specifically for employers we examine proven methods for eliminating waste, drawing from Thomson Reuters client experience and other literature. This presentation will highlight specific actions that can tackle identifiable waste in healthcare spending.

Join Bob Kelley, VP of Healthcare Analytics at Thomson Reuters, to learn about the country’s leading public and private sector efforts to reduce waste in the healthcare system and identify five proven strategies that have been deployed in the real world to cut costs and improve patient care:

  • Engage Consumers
  • Coordinate and Share Information
  • Manage Disease and Maintain Wellness
  • Design for Patient Safety and Quality
  • Reduce Opportunities for Fraud

“A Path to Eliminating $3.6 Trillion in Wasteful Healthcare Spending” is coauthored by Bob Kelley, Vice President, Healthcare Analytics and Dr. Ray Fabius, Chief Medical Officer, both of Thomson Reuters. It is a follow-up to Kelley’s ground-breaking paper “Where Can $700 Billion Be Cut Annually from the U.S. Healthcare System?” that was cited in numerous blogs, broadcasts, newspapers, business journals, trade magazines, and congressional testimony.
