The healthcare system has failed to achieve its purpose: supporting patients in their pursuit of better and stable health. Innovating for Wellness: Bridging the Gap between Health System and Patient explores the ways in which innovators are thinking differently about how healthcare should be provided to our nation’s sickest patients.
75% of U.S. healthcare spending is attributable to chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Our system fails to effectively support patients with these illnesses resulting in avoidable emergency department visits and hospitalizations.
In this book, you will discover:
Innovative digital health technology start-ups and passionate entrepreneurs
The Accountable Care Organization and its creator's mission to deliver more effective care
How healthcare is changing to fundamentally flip from reactive to proactive
How mobile technologies are becoming central to care delivery models
Digital technologies and new payment models that are driving better patient outcomes
How innovators can look to patient stories to reveal major gaps in the system
Longyear explores these innovations through the lens of a patient and caregiver as his family’s tragic story reveals important insights into how healthcare must change to drive better outcomes. We are in the perfect storm for disruption in healthcare as technology has accelerated and antiquated payment models are being replaced with new incentives.
Innovating for Wellness speaks to professionals, students, patients, caregivers, and those interested in the rapidly changing world of healthcare. If you work in healthcare, have ever been a patient, or are interested in the future of the industry, this book is for you.
“ Innovating for Wellness sheds new light on the challenges we face with our current reactive health care system. Using riveting stories, Robert Longyear brilliantly explores the intersection of innovation, digital health, and medicine, and how they can provide personalized care to our nation’s patients. Innovating for Wellness is a must-read, and we are lucky to have Robert Longyear as our guide.”
