Dr. Greisler began by noting the tensions of three key drivers of the healthcare system—cost,
quality, and access.

Mr. Lee spoke of the impact on cost of DVHIT. DVHIT is a member based program to drive
down costs to municipalities for health care. The savings are significant—over 30% as compared
with regular insurance carriers. He described how the approach works.

Q and A focuses on a number of questions that absorbed the remainder of the session: Can
technology make the healthcare system for efficient? Examples of technology helping--
electronic scheduling of appointments, electronic records, and using Skype for physicians to
speak with patients in underserved area (such as rural areas).

Another issue that generated discussion was the difference in orientation toward the healthcare
system by Baby Boomers as opposed to Millennials. Implications of this for service delivery
were discussed.
