An authoritative discussion of the $3 trillion enterprise that is the U.S. health care system, the largest in the developed world, and yet one beset by problems of access, quality and unsustainable costs. Led by a noted New York Times correspondent (and M.D.) and the head of Southampton Hospital.

Her two-year-long series for the Times on health care costs,“Paying Till It Hurts,” inspired her current book project, to be published in 2017. Beats she has covered for the Times include health care, international environment, and a six-year stint as a foreign correspondent based in China. She received her bachelor’s degree from Stanford and also holds an M.A.  in English literature from Cambridge University, where she was a Marshall Scholar. 

 

ROBERT S. CHALONER has been president and CEO of Southampton Hospital since 2006, where he is actively engaged in stabilizing and rebuilding the hospital’s financial and operating performance, as well as reestablishing the hospital’s community reputation.
