Based on projections by Peter Orzag at the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), we are on an unsustainable path for healthcare spending. Based on a study by the Congressional Budget Office, if we continue on this path tax rates will have to increase for the top bracket (around 35%) to 92% in 2050 in order to solely fund healthcare spending.

Created opportunity to experiment with models that would disrupt the existing system such a bundled payments across clinical conditions as well as ACOs that could be led by hospitals, payers, or providers. But if these experiments are not sufficient to bend cost curve, then legislation has mechanisms to continue to cut payments in the existing system, including the creation of an Independent Payment Advisory Board. This means our providers will have a foot in both camps. They are going to live in a fee for service world while they also try to innovate and reinvent the care delivery model.
