尊嚴離世，安寧善終

Modern healthcare often overlooks what truly matters to the seriously ill, focusing on costly interventions instead of patient values. In the US, the sickest 15 percent consume nearly $2.3 trillion, yet experience more suffering and shorter lives. Stories like Harold's, who chose to go fishing over more hospital time, reveal the power of care rooted in dignity and individual meaning. Patient-centered palliative care has been shown to cut costs by 70 percent while helping people live better and longer.
