Summary:
Health care is a mess—and our political leaders aren’t helping.
Reimagining Healthcare (RH) has established an editorial discipline emphasizing how health policy and healthcare reform must expand access to care, reduce costs, protect the vulnerable, and promote innovation. From modernizing Medicare to expanding access to Alzheimer’s innovation, RH is advancing medical progress through curation, original commentary, and editorials.
A reimagined healthcare system puts patients first and equips medical professionals with the most advanced tools to save and improve the lives of the American people. Innovation, invention, and modernity are the keys to medical progress; to new cures and novel therapies; to healthier lives.
