Second-Largest Payer Segment: Patients
What we’re selling is expensive. Period.
Who’s picking up the tab for the health care bills?
#1: Federal government pays for 34%
#2: Households pay for 27%
#3: Private businesses pay for 17%
#4: State and local governments pay for 15%
#5: Others pay for 7%
Turns out that patients, collectively, are bigger payers than commercial payers. And 40% of them are in medical debt.
When I shine a light, both you and I can see better.
