Abstract

An ever-changing health care system with a constantly increasing aging surgical population creates both opportunities for providing improved health care as well as significant challenges. Coordinated health care initiatives are needed if one is to adequately balance the need for evidence-based improved patient outcomes and the often-associated increased costs. In this article the authors postulate that a protocol-driven, multidisciplinary approach may be a pathway for implementing an effective triple aim to health care, especially in a frail geriatric population.
