Health care spending in the US is expected to reach more than $7 trillion by 2031. New research by IHME examines US health care spending by county and health condition and finds significant variation. Where you live, the type of care you receive, and how it’s paid for makes a difference. Understanding these trends is critical to identifying ways to reduce costs and increase access to care. We discuss the data with study author IHME Associate Professor Dr. Joe Dieleman.
An independent population health research organization based at the University of Washington School of Medicine, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) works with collaborators around the world to develop timely, relevant, and scientifically valid evidence that illuminates the state of health everywhere. In making our research available and approachable, we aim to inform health policy and practice in pursuit of our vision: all people living long lives in full health.
