Parents everywhere have asked the age-old question: How can I get my child to eat more fruits and vegetables?
The University of Texas Dell Medical School is expanding that question to: How can we get people to eat more fruits and vegetables, improve their health and have health care payers pay for that?
“We are interested in health systems paying for what works,” said Maninder Kahlon, the director and founder of Dell Medical School’s Factor Health. “If healthy food is what works, then they should pay for healthy food.”
