Creating healthier communities: challenge for the 21st Century.
The challenge for the 21st century will be to create healthier communities. Health is the ultimate cost-reduction strategy and the defining outcome for future health care systems. The challenge for those managing care will be to influence the web of factors from which health arises. Across the country, communities are working to redesign underlying conditions, forge new partnerships, and create high-level health. They will do for themselves what Washington cannot.
