What happens when a well-intentioned healthcare metric gets turned into a target? Nothing good — and Liz has the receipts. Before medical school, she spent two and a half years as study director for a major National Academies report on healthcare measurement. Then she went to residency, and everything she believed fell apart. This episode walks through the VA wait-time scandal, MIPS, and the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program — three cautionary tales about what happens when you attach incentives to healthcare data, and why Goodhart's Law keeps winning.
