Lessons from Israel’s Health Care System

By Evan Falchuk

Along with the highly esteemed Professor Stuart Altman, I am speaking tomorrow night tonight in an event sponsored by the Boston chapter of the terrific health care organization Hadassah.  My mother is the National President of the organization, which you can learn more about here.

The subject is American health care reform and what we can learn from the experience of Israel.  Israel is a highly-developed country which, like the United States, enjoys world-class medicine, but does not suffer with the same problems of uncontrolled costs that we do.

Professor Altman is a renowned expert on these subjects, so it promises to be a fascinating discussion.

If you’re in the Boston area and can make it, you should come by.  Details here.
