CVS CEO warns of impending Medicare crisis in the U.S.

CVS Health CEO Karen Lynch warns of a "tsunami" of Americans 65 and older entering Medicare, putting pressure on the healthcare system. Lynch emphasizes the importance of engagement between patients and providers, and the need for preventative care to keep people healthier as they age. Value-based care and healthcare technology, including tele-mental-health visits and early detection of chronic conditions, can improve patient outcomes and center prevention over treatment. CVS Health is focusing on integrating healthcare technology in the home to help people prioritize their health as part of their daily life.
