General Electric & Health Care

It seems like every day more and more people are jumping on the bandwagon to help improve our country’s health care system. Recently, GE announced that they will be launching a $6 billion health care initiative intended to improve health care for people, and reduce cost. They call it “healthyimagination.”
To do this, GE is not only reanalyzing what products they are developing, but also the manner in which they are made. According to reports, GE has stated that they will supply 100 new innovations that will lower cost, and improve access to health care by 2015.
All healthyimagination products are to be validated by an external company; specifically, Oxford Analytica will be responsible for reviewing GE’s products throughout their development. Oxford Analytica consists of both health and economic experts. This external company is to be unbiased, and in charge of determining whether or not GE’s products truly illustrate the ability to cut costs.
