Note that peoples’ faith in healthcare remained steady from 2019 to this year (just a 1 point decline in the index). In health care, these would be our honest-and-ethical front-line workers — nurses, physicians, and pharmacists, the latest Gallup Poll on the question learned (described here in Health Populi).
Health Populi’s Hot Points: When PatientsLikeMe was acquired by UnitedHealthcare earlier this year, my friends-in-health-tech Susannah Fox, Lisa Suennen and I wrote a response to the acquisition and situation on each of our blogs, and on Medium. Here’s the link to our post here on Health Populi, from July 1, 2019.
I’m glad to be getting back to health economic issues after spending the last couple of weeks firmly focused on consumers, digital health technologies and CES 2019. There’s a lot for me to address concerning health care costs based on news and research published over the past couple of weeks.
One of the most concerning data points on health service avoidance is the drop in pediatric vaccinations which remain below pre-pandemic levels, IQVIA’s data revealed.

A Kaiser Family Foundation poll covered here in Health Populi demonstrated support across party ID back in October 2019. The Gallup-West Health Poll finds similar massive support for government negotiation specifically for COVID-19 treatment pricing, shown in the third table. Gallup and West Health polled 1,016 U.S.
