With proposed federal budget cuts reigniting discussions on healthcare spending, it’s critical to focus on fixing inefficiencies. One of the biggest inefficiencies in healthcare today is something we rarely talk about enough: medications. When people aren’t on the right medications (or aren’t taking them properly), it drives avoidable hospitalizations and complications – all together resulting in $528 billion per year in unnecessary spending. As Arine co-founder and CEO Yoona Kim shared in The Wall Street Journal, our work is about helping the healthcare system get this right. We’ve been through policy changes before, and we’ll go through them again. What remains constant is the need for smarter and more efficient care. If we focus on getting the medications right, the economics will follow. Curious to hear how others are thinking about this – what solutions do you see as most critical in the face of these changes? Thank you, Brian Gormley, for your coverage on this important topic. Matthew Loper Bill Evans Rock Health
