Something like 90% of all the healthcare you consume in the US happens in the last 5 years of your life.

Doesn’t matter how old you are when you die.

Our end of life care is the predominant driver of health care costs. I bought into the death panel talking point in my younger years

After watching a few grandparents and a parent now go through a never ending cycle of care, rehab, care, rehab to keep alive a person whose body and/or mind had expired has changed my mind on this.

A more mature conversation on end of life care is desperately needed.
