Manhattan Institute releases book on Consumer Driven Health Care
Compiling essays from leaders in the field, Regina E. Herzlinger has put together what looks to be an excellent resource for those interested in the future of health care. The website includes essays from and reviews of the book, Consumer-Driven Health Care: Implications for Providers, Payers and Policy Makers.
Increased consumer control of health care is shaking up the medical and insurance systems. In Consumer-Driven Health Care, Harvard Business School’s acclaimed professor Regina E. Herzlinger states that hospitals, doctors, benefits administrators, accountants, government policymakers, and insurers had better adapt or else they will be replaced.
Professor Herzlinger documents how the consumer-driven health care movement is being implemented and its impact on insurers, providers, new intermediaries, and governments. With additional contributions by health care’s leading strategists, innovators, regulators and scholars, Consumer-Driven Health Care presents a compelling vision of a health care system built to satisfy the people it serves.
This comprehensive resource includes the most important thinking on the topic and compelling case studies of consumer-driven health care (CDHC) in action, here and abroad, including new consumer-driven intermediaries for information and support; types of insurance plans; focused factories for delivering health care; personalized drugs and devices; and government roles.
Regina Herzlinger’s unique perspective covers both the theoretical basis of CDHC and the opportunity for innovation that CDHC offers. Her book is a volume that no leader in health care can afford to be without.
