Not Just In Sickness But Also In Health
MAKE A VOW TO GOOD HEALTH

How much time each year do you spend interacting with a doctor, pharmacist, or other clinician? Not much, right? In fact, a vast majority of people spend less than 1 percent of their time―usually far less―in clinical settings or interactions. Furthermore, clinical care affects only 30 percent of our overall health status, so why do we fail to acknowledge the drivers of the other 70 percent?

We deserve a healthcare system that systematically supports our daily living needs where we spend over 99 percent of our time as a complement to clinical care. It is our daily living activities related to such things as nutrition, fitness, resiliency, sleep, relationships, finances, and purpose―as impacted by social determinants―that make up the vast majority of what determines our total well-being.

Not Just in Sickness but Also in Health details how we can create the next generation of benefit plans, including an intelligent ecosystem of personalized resources, capable of supporting how each person can achieve and sustain their optimal health.

Drawing on his decades of experience, Margolis explains how existing healthcare industry players, government policymakers, and technology companies can enact a systematic healthcare consumer-centric approach to accomplish these aims, and move the United States and the world from a system of sickcare to one of health optimization for all.
