Redirecting innovation in U.S. health care

"Our work for this project focused on identifying promising policy options to change which medical technologies are created in the first place, with these two related policy goals:

  1. Reduce total health care spending with the smallest possible loss of health benefits.
  2. Ensure that new medical products that increase spending are accompanied by health benefits that are worth the spending increases."
