Matthew Holt analyzed several forecasts and scenarios related to health care spending and insurance coverage in the United States. His analysis showed that forecasts from 2010 underestimated the number of uninsured Americans and overestimated per capita health care spending. Reform after 2010 led to fewer uninsured Americans but health care spending as a share of GDP remained higher than predicted. Without reform, more Americans would be uninsured and health care costs would continue to rise rapidly.

the world
Intelligent tools for content delivery -- and transactions
Better integration of data with content
And not just a maybe.
Technologies fusing as patients increasingly guide their
