About Health Reform - Guiding Principles
We felt it was important to establish a set of principles to guide our health reform work.
- The purpose of the health care reform initiative is to improve the health of Minnesotans and to redesign care to improve value (quality/costs).
- We must “start with the end in mind” and always remain focused on what we want to accomplish and what success looks like.
- To ensure that all Minnesotans benefit, we will aim for market-wide implementation of health reforms—not just reforms for government programs.
- We will seek—and expect—unprecedented collaboration among public and private partners as we implement the comprehensive health reform initiative.
