| With a focus on improving end-of-life care and addressing the human aspects of illness and dying, Dr. Byock discusses the shift to value-based healthcare, the **Institute for Human Caring** and its mission to enhance healthcare quality while reducing costs, emphasizing an American healthcare system that often prioritizes treatment over quality of life. Byock also encourages patients to view their lives as narratives, finding clarity and compassion in their experiences, while acknowledging caregivers’ challenges and the need for self-care. He underscores mindfulness and nurturing connections as vital to appreciating life before crises arise. |
