This Friday, the Department of Nursing in our College will be sponsoring a conference entitled, "Transforming Healthcare." What I will find interesting at the conference will not only be the materials developed by the presenters, but the reaction of the audience during question and answer sessions that will follow.
I think every adult in our country sees that there is a change coming in health care. What will that change look like? That is something which will appear over the coming months, but one thing is for certain. If we all sit back and wait for the change to come, we cannot complain about the pathway taken by the change. Instead, we need to participate in the change, each in our own way. In that manner, we will be a part of the process and not a victim of it.
Yes...change is coming. But perhaps not as fast as assumed. The new generation of healthcare will consist of HSAs, catastrophic caps and preventive-emphasized policies...not such a bad thing!
