Hi there, I'm Drew Weilage and I'm working to make healthcare better for patients.
This is a blog with links to healthcare goings on, trends, and uncategorized interestingness as well as attempts to filter my own healthcare thinking through essay.
I am greatly aware of my idealistic, naive even, views on a number of topics. But frankly, I think healthcare is in dire need of more of the "what's possible/what could be" type of thinking. I'm greatly protective of my unabashed idealism but always open to reason and discourse about any of it.
This is round two of my blogging life, the first being archived here.

“We’re drinking more soda for several reasons. Above all, the inflation-adjusted price has fallen 34 percent since the late 1970s, largely because it can be manufactured more cheaply than in the past. Meanwhile, the average real cost of fruits and vegetables has risen more than 30 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.”

We know it costs more to eat healthily. Reminders never hurt.
