Abstract

This chapter explores, discusses, analyzes, and presents some recommendations for new, innovative alternative healthcare models to the traditional insurance and healthcare models that currently exist. These include a revised and enhanced hybrid model of healthcare; healthcare cost-sharing faith-based model; healthcare cost-reduction corporate partnership model (for example, Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway, and JPMorgan Chase partnership); direct primary care model; and wellness program model including subscription type payment services, concierge medicine services, networks of primary care physicians providing patient retention, personalized medicine, and preventive care (MD VIP for example). Significant outcomes such as lowering healthcare costs, enhancing the quality and delivery of healthcare services, improving patient satisfaction, and promoting overall sustainability are addressed, including their implications for various stakeholders.
