"We have a sick care system, not a healthcare system. The economic driver is to keep people as sick as possible for as long as possible so they keep coming back."
In this eye-opening episode from our Design-Thinking Program for Health System, Clinical and Nursing Leaders, economist and nursing professor Dr. Olga Yakusheva exposes the truth about nursing's economic value and why our healthcare system continues to undervalue its most trusted profession.
Drawing from both personal experience and rigorous research, Dr. Yakusheva reveals:
• Why the nursing shortage isn't about too few nurses—it's about too few jobs nurses want to take
• How the healthcare system financially rewards volume over quality (by a staggering 99:1 ratio)
• Why nurses—5 million strong—must unify their collective voice for systemic change
• How the Nursing Human Capital Value Model redefines nursing's worth and could transform healthcare economics
This isn't just a conversation about nursing—it's about reimagining an entire economic model that currently rewards illness over wellness.
