Introducing Insight Unpacked, Season 2: American Healthcare and Its Web of Misaligned Incentives
If you lived in the nineteenth century, and you got sick, it was bad news. Simple urinary tract infections were deadly. Appendicitis killed you. And Syphilis might leave you without a nose.
Thanks to modern medicine, this is pretty unimaginable today. And if you live in the United States, you know that we pay handsomely for the privilege. But why do we pay more than any other country? 
Welcome to Insight Unpacked—the series where our faculty break down a complex business topic. And boy do we have one for you this season: American healthcare and its web of misaligned incentives.
And we’re gonna get really familiar with the things that motivate this system’s biggest players. Those players? Hospital systems, doctors, health-insurance companies, pharmaceuticals, and patients.
