The State of Care: Patient Access & Affordability

Americans continue to rank health care as a top concern, while rising costs chip away at access and affordability. Many acknowledge that the business of health care is dysfunctional and that the patient experience is often missing from the equation. How can vital stakeholders in the health care ecosystem come together to assess value, explore new models for payment and ultimately put patients at the heart of the health care debate?

The Atlantic gathered key perspectives to continue the conversation on what it costs to stay healthy in America today.
