Whether you are insured or uninsured, the serious quality problems in the American health care system affect you. There are many excellent health care providers in America, yet there are too many preventable mistakes and too few efforts to coordinate patient care. Our Emergency Departments are over-burdened and inefficient and many Americans experience unequal health care outcomes because of race, ethnicity, and income. Fundamental changes are needed in health care delivery in the United States. Indeed, efforts to improve the quality of patient care are central to reforming our struggling health system.
