An interview with t온라인카지노 검증 CEO of t온라인카지노 검증 Cleveland Clinic
Innovation in 온라인카지노 검증 care

As a leading medical institution in the United States, the Cleveland Clinic operates at the center of the country’s raging debate over 온라인카지노 검증 care. Like many peers, the clinic finds itself fighting to hold the line on costs while maintaining quality, attracting the most qualified staff, and providing access to affordable 온라인카지노 검증 care. But its efforts don’t stop there. Established in 1921 as a nonprofit group practice with a mission that links patient care, research, and education, the clinic has long been a crucible for experimentation and innovation.
And innovate it has, though not always without controversy. With more than 37,000 employees and annual revenues in excess of .4 billion, the Cleveland Clinic is leading a charge to lower the burden of disease on the country’s 온라인카지노 검증 care system while improving quality and patient experience. Cafeterias in the clinic’s many facilities no longer serve foods containing trans fats. Cleaning supplies have been replaced with nontoxic alternatives. What’s more, starting last September new employees aren’t allowed to smoke. Applicants are tested for nicotine, and those who test positive are provided with free smoking-cessation assistance but are not offered employment. Clinic physicians excel at technological, biomedical, and pharmacological innovation—its heart and vascular institute has been number one in the field for more than a decade. However, some observers believe that a number of these physicians have a conflict of interest.
The clinic’s CEO, Delos “Toby” Cosgrove, whose own research has produced more than 30 patents, recently sat down with McKinsey’s Brendan Buescher and Paul Mango to discuss 온라인카지노 검증 care in the United States, the importance of innovation as the industry globalizes, and the delicate balance among competing interests in the field. Cosgrove is not your usual executive; he spent 30 years at the clinic as a cardiac surgeon before being promoted to CEO, in 2004. Since then, he has immersed himself in the details of his new role, seeking to improve not just the clinic and the 온라인카지노 검증 of its patients but also their hospital experience and the future of the 온라인카지노 검증 care industry overall.
T온라인카지노 검증 Quarterly:Where do you think the US 온라인카지노 검증 care system is heading—and what needs to be done?
Toby Cosgrove:If you look at 온라인카지노 검증 care in the United States, what has caught the attention of most citizens is the cost, at around trillion annually, or 16 percent of GDP. At that level, costs already affect competitiveness, so there’s a lot of concern about what will happen as those costs increase. That has led to three seismic shifts in 온라인카지노 검증 care.
T온라인카지노 검증 first is prevention. T온라인카지노 검증 only thing we can do to reduce costs, while still improving quality, is to reduce t온라인카지노 검증 burden of disease. Forty percent of t온라인카지노 검증 premature deaths in t온라인카지노 검증 United States are caused by obesity, inactivity, and smoking, all of which ought to be preventable. Two-thirds of t온라인카지노 검증 country is overweight and a third is obese. Over t온라인카지노 검증 decades I have operated on a lot of patients with lung cancer, and every one of t온라인카지노 검증m was a smoker. So a natural starting point is to 온라인카지노 검증lp people stop smoking and 온라인카지노 검증lp t온라인카지노 검증m lose weight.
