Health systems around the world are reaching a tipping point – the rising
need for health care of an aging population, emerging problems like Ebola
and persistent problems like malaria and tuberculosis, and the recent Covid
pandemic all highlight the limitations of our healthcare systems and their
prevailing models of organization. While there is increasing awareness of
the risks to our health systems there is little evidence of starting the
necessary widespread engagement with all stakeholders to deal with this
‘wicked problem’.



The status quo in a nutshell – the hospital-centric focus with its emphasis
on curing diseases has resulted on the one hand in its financial
unsustainability, and on the other in patients’ distrust in being able to
receive the right care at the right point in time that meets their needs.
The focus on disease management of the common chronic disease spectrum
provides a never-ending business opportunity driven by ongoing
investigations and interventions of questionable benefits. There are no
funds left to address the *’causes of the causes*’, and to invest in
improving the social determinants of health like secure work and
employment, safe housing and urban communities, health foods and community
gardens, and education and learning support. These activities are essential
to reduce the stress mediated psychoneuroimmunological drivers that cause
and perpetuate disease.



The exploitative nature of the healthcare market has finally made the
health system precariously unstable – health services can’t afford staff
and equipment, and patients can’t afford the direct and/or indirect costs
of healthcare.



We have a window of opportunity to prepare for the inevitable need for
change. This year’s meeting will focus on the systemic bottom-up redesign
of health systems. Hence, we invite all health system stakeholders –
spanning from urban design, education, finance, public health, healthcare,
community members to basic scientists – to come to San Francisco to share
their insights into ways to rebuild health system harnessing our diversity
for the creation of an inclusive and sustainable health system.
