Modus Information

Thoughtful Care is a pledge: a clinical practice that leaves patients better off, not worse. It costs less because it's well planned to avoid harmful and expensive complications. But Thoughtful Care has no organization behind it, and no sponsor. Thoughtless care has plenty of sponsors. Entire industries reward doctors for costly care: unnecessary surgery, hardware, and drugs. So value in healthcare remains an illusion. The system keeps raising costs while discounting what it pays clinicians. Doctors are buried under hundreds of quality metrics that are routinely gamed. Thoughtful clinicians work harder for less, while thoughtless clinicians are rewarded for upcoding and volume. Doctors account for about 7% of healthcare spending but direct the other 93%. Society needs thoughtful clinicians who serve patients' best interests. Modus is the sponsor Thoughtful Care never had.
