Interesting statement on health care costs from retired hospital executive via a Tweet from Tim O'Reilly of O'Reilly Radar and Publishing. It's a post on "Not Running a Hospital", a blog by Paul Levy. Helpful longer-range perspective. I am a fan of W. Edwards Deming, the statistical guru who helped the world get better quality in production of goods and services. Deming saw a steady rise in health costs and Levy explains several good, logical reasons for that to be true worldwide, not just in the U.S.
