UnitedHealth and I.B.M.Try a Health Care Plan Where Doctors get rewarded for Patients' Good Health

A totally fascinating article from the business section of today’s New York Times. My favorite part describes a pilot program they (United Health) tried that didn’t work. Guess why? Wait for it….The insurer did not closely consult with the doctors in designing the pilot program. Read that carefully and think about it a few times. We are becoming a country where common sense is going out the window in too many areas. Read it all.
