The True Costs of Orthopedic Care
Dear CSS Members and Colleagues: More than 100 years ago E. Amory Codman recognized that Value required an understanding of not only the outcome of treatment but the true costs of care. Avant-Garde Healthcare has moved this concept forward with a data analytics method which offers accurate measurement of the true costs of Orthopedic Care. Indeed, recent work by Dr. Andy Jawa (one of our CSS Members) and others have started to apply this approach to shoulder care. Enclosed is

The Three Types of People Who End Up the Wealthiest
Dear CSS Members and Colleagues: The value of wealth in my opinion, is to give you freedom to do what you want to enrich your life without worrying about “work”. Then “work” can become something else and something you enjoy and might not be inclined to call “work.” The enclosed article speaks to the issue of wealth.
