Almanac of Chronic Disease
The 2008 "Almanac of Chronic Disease" presents comprehensive facts that characterize the crisis of chronic disease and how it is contributing to problems with access, affordability and quality of care. In five chapters, we provide information and commentary by health care experts and advisory board members from the Partnership to Fight Chronic Disease, on:
- The human cost of chronic disease;
- The economic of chronic disease;
- The costs of chronic disease tomorrow;
- Opportunities for improvement; and
- Public understanding of the problem.
It is our hope that this Almanac will serve as a key reference point for where our nation can focus its attention with respect to reforming our health care system.
