America’s failing healthcare system: how we got here and where do we go? Presented by Dr. Edward Hoffer.
Join Dr. Edward Hoffer at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library, 7 Barstow St., Tues., 5/28, from 6:30– 7:30 pm as he discusses America’s failing healthcare system: how we got here and where do we go?
Dr. Hoffer will cover why the U.S. spends vastly more on healthcare than other developed countries and yet has mediocre health outcomes; where the money goes and what people can do to protect themselves.
This critical topic is relevant to each and every one of us as we learn to navigate the healthcare system. Dr. Hoffer was an undergraduate at MIT, MD at Harvard; and did his residency and cardiology fellowship at Mass General Hospital. He was in private practice for 40 years combined with research on medical informatics at MGH. Dr. Hoffer works half-time at the MGH Lab of Computer Science on AI, trying to help doctors make more accurate diagnoses. He is the author of the book entitled Prescription for Bankruptcy.
FREE and open to all.
