Such services will provide U.S. employees along with their families, high-quality, transparent and simplified healthcare at a very reasonable cost. They plan to take a fresh approach by drawing on their combined resources and capabilities.<br \/>\nWarren Buffett was reported to be saying, \u201cThe ballooning costs of healthcare act as a hungry tapeworm on the American economy. Our group does not come to this problem with answers. But we also do not accept it as inevitable.\u201d<br \/>\nAmazon CEO Jeff Bezos said that all the partners were entering into this massive challenge knowing well that it will be really difficult.<br \/>\nBezos said, \u201cHard as it might be, reducing healthcare\u2019s burden on the economy while improving outcomes for employees and their families would be worth the effort. Success is going to require talented experts, a beginner\u2019s mind, and a long-term orientation.\u201d<br \/>\nJPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon expressed his views on the new Health IT solution saying that people desperately want more control and vivid transparency over their own healthcare. He said that the partners were aiming to work towards just that for their own employees initially. Once the plan is successful, it will then be offered to all Americans, potentially.<br \/>\nExperts believe that it will be a great move if such a service was to enter the market. It will surely help the US citizens and offer ease to the sick. Some people are wondering whether US President Donald Trump will finally take some concrete steps to improve the healthcare of US citizens after the launch of these services. Until now, Trump administration has failed to repeal or even replace Obamacare. That\u2019s another promise that remains unfulfilled from the Trump electoral campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new Health IT Company would give people greater transparency and more control over their healthcare in order to drive down costs and improve satisfaction.
