The traditional healthcare system in the United States offers far more incentives to doctors to treat sick patients, rather than prevent illness. In this video, HealthMaker Mel Zuckerman explains why this is a flawed approach.
It's broken because we don't practice healthcare in this country, we practice sick care. And it's some kind of perverse set of incentives that pay doctors to treat sick people, but don't pay them anything to keep them well.
Mel Zuckerman founded Canyon Ranch. He was once an overweight homebuilder. Then, a trip to a Spartan fat farm changed everything. He got his health back and went on to transform the fitness and spa industry with Canyon Ranch.
