The book that’s revolutionizing health care in America.

A groundbreaking prescription for reform - from a legendary leader in innovation.

“Clear, entertaining, and provocative, The Innovator's Prescription should be read by anyone who cares about improving the health and health care of all.” (Risa Lavizzo-Mourey, MD, president and CEO, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation)

Our health-care system is in critical condition. The Affordable Care Act has insured more Americans than ever, yet deductibles keep rising and costs continue to climb. Now more than ever, the industry needs a shot in the arm. It needs The Innovator's Prescription, the now-classic approach to efficient, affordable health care. Learn how to:

• Deliver personalized care at a lower cost with “precision medicine”
• Improve quality, accessibility, and affordability using a disruptive business model
• Enable better treatment of chronic diseases through patient networks
• Diagnose problems and find solutions faster using new technology
• Take advantage of insurance and regulatory reforms to provide the best care possible

Confused on the publishing date.

Audible says it's a 2021 published book, but that must be when it was completed as an audible book. Some reviewed it and said 2009, while others said 2015. Some narration suggests it's at least 2009. The issue I have with all this is the subject matter is changing over time. Some of the things the authors suggest are old and not relevant anymore (2025). When it comes to nonfiction, and particularly to subjects that are time dependent, I'd really like to know when the book was written and published. Audible should make the all the book editions known, which edition is being used and the publishing date of the audible version.

Dated but still relevant

As a rural family physician, I enjoyed the discussions about what's wrong with medicine. This book had some solutions but many of them were quite dated.

Predicted the future pretty well

Even though the book is now ten years dated the principles and fore shadowing is worth a listen.

Great book even for 2021

These guys identified a decent cocktail for health care problems in 2009. It’s interesting to look back and see which parts we’ve tried and it’s hard to believe we have not done more of these. Definitely worth the read/listen.
