BOOK REVIEW Redefining Healthcare; Creating Value-Based Competition on Results coauthored by Michael Porter
Skyrocketing costs, restrictions on care, millions uninsured – few of us would disagree that the U.S. healthcare system faces big challenges. Now there’s a new approach to improving the system from the Harvard School of Business. Michael Porter is co-author of Redefining Health Care: Creating Value-Based Competition on Results. He was in Cleveland this week at the Cleveland Clinic, where he spoke with ideastream’s Karen Schaefer. He says the basis for fixing healthcare is competition.
You can listen to a recent conversation with Michael Porter by ideastream’s Karen Schaefer.
