Strategies that Work is the second meeting in the Roundtable’s three-part workshop series, The Healthcare Imperative: Lowering Costs and Improving Outcomes. Based on the incongruency of health costs and health outcomes in the United States, the series is exploring how U.S. per capita health spending might be lowered by 10% within 10 years. The meeting was convened on July 16-17, 2009. The first workshop, Understanding the Targets, identified key areas for decreasing inefficiency and waste; this second workshop will explore promising methods for achieving these cost savings.
