Interesting article on Kaiser's efforts to control the costs of health care. It has spent $30B the past 10 yrs. on its electronic medical records capability. It employs all of its doctors and tracks each one for employing best treatment practices. Yet even in places such as California where it controls all forms of delivery its cost savings is only 10%.
