Americans spend more on health care than any other nation, but we are far from the healthiest. The former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and current president of MERCK's vaccine division, Dr. Gerberding champions private-public partnerships to improve health and lower care costs. She shares her experiences and successes and offers compelling strategies to put health at the center of the policy debate.
