TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - The 800-Pound Gorilla: Rising Healthcare Costs A1 - Burns, Lawton Robert PY - 2021 T2 - The U.S. Healthcare Ecosystem: Payers, Providers, Producers AB - As noted in Chapter 5, the United States has struggled with the problem of rising healthcare costs since (at least) the late 1920s. Indeed, the “cost” angle has dominated the iron triangle for attention in most decades since. That means we have an intractable problem—one going on for 90+ years. Of the 3 angles in the iron triangle or the triple aim, the cost angle has been particularly vexing. That is why this volume devotes an entire chapter to the topic.
