Establish high deductible health plans paired with pre-tax medical expense accounts such as Health Reimbursement Arrangements (HRAs) or Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and information tools

Support use of in-vehicle devices that alert novice teen drivers when they have high g-force events (e.g., rapid acceleration, braking, or turning) and allow families to review driving performance

Establish roads that avoid built-up areas such as towns, cities, or commercial/business districts

Make pricing for hospital procedures and other health care services publicly available, often via websites, online databases, report cards, or similar tools

Prohibit all drivers from texting or talking on a cell phone while driving

Use the purchasing power of employers and groups of insured individuals to create incentives and disincentives for health care providers to deliver high quality, high value care
