In October of 2016, Dr. Clayton Christensen, Dr. Jerome Grossman, and Dr. Jason Hwang released a revolutionary new book applying Disruption Theory (as outlined in the Innovator’s Dilemma) to the US healthcare industry. The Innovator’s Prescription: A Disruptive Solution for Health Care outlines one of the most salient approaches to addressing the cost crisis in the US, while also inspiring better outcomes for patients. While the entire book should be required reading for anyone working in healthcare (Amazon), this multi-part series will seek to summarize some of the key components of the authors’ treatise while applying them to recent events in the healthcare market. Any errors in paraphrasing of the work are mine.
