For less than one cent per person (for ink), the new Lifestyle Diagnosis health care model adds Personal Responsibility to every American's health record, in the form of three sentences just before the present blood pressure, chloresterol, and weight (all symptoms) entries.
They are:
1. Hours per week of lifelong, vigorous exercise: _______________. (percent of the ideal).
2. Eating only unprocessed, mainly plant-based, food:________________________.
3. Freedom from chronic stress:_________________________.
These scores will be given equal urgency to that presently given to taking prescribed medicines.
Incentives will encourage excellent (or improved) scores, such as zero co-payments for acheivers, discounts on bicycles, walking shoes, gym memberships, etc.
Non-compliance will be urgently addressed, such as by a mandatory group class before the next doctor visit.
Now, just by adding these three sentences to the 250 million American health records, the health model is changed from the outdated Symptom Diagnosis model, to the new Lifestyle Diagnosis model, and health care will be instantly changed from being 15% effective, to being 85 to 90 percent effective. At no additional cost, and with henceforth increasing cost declines !
