Preventative medicine is the best medicine

The Wall Street Journal has published this interesting commentary by Deepak Chopra about the real benefits of alternative medicine and lifestyle changes to improve our health and reduce our health care spending. I like how he emphasizes that our current, ineffective system is focused on treating disease after it strikes rather than on working to prevent health problems. Prevention gets talked up a lot in the press, but I sure haven’t seen anything change in how my MDs treat me or my patients. Some of the most debilitating and expensive-to-treat health problems are preventable in a large percentage of the population. Why aren’t we focusing on that as we look to fix our very broken medical system? Hopefully, someone in the Obama administration will take a look at this and maybe start requiring insurers to cover things like acupuncture. I suspect they’ll find that it’s much more cost effective than what we’re doing now.
