7. Hey, what about
Social / Public Good?
You’re always better off if you create market value
(even if you’re a non-profit) MPH?
With finite budgets, non-profits will compete against each other;
need market reinforcement/acceleration
Can go for-profit w/ public/social good
for broader usage/greater impact*

18. Old Paradigm – Fee for Service
Payers aggregate –
but have not historically been “health care”
“Actually, I make more money
off of bad drivers.”*
(Read w/ accent)
Note:
Medicare $ > Employer $
Employer populations = tougher outcomes (3-year turn)
Cf. Medicare reimbursement rates
19. Old Paradigm – Fee for Service
Hospitals/Providers may generate revenue

Keep patients away?!?
