Article Description

Survival is not enough. We need to build a health system starting from patients' needs without wasting the resources of our grandchildren and great-grandchildren. We have to switch from curative to preventive medicine by firing managers who think they can resolve all problems by cutting expenditures. We need to educate a new cadre of managers able to govern by centering the system on the patients. Managers should consider health care as an asset and should reinforce clinical research. Such a program has been recently adopted in France.
