Dalla quarta di copertina

In recent years, health care leaders and legislators have introduced radical new systems of managed care and implemented marketplace reform. Despite these innovations, escalating costs and poor access have plagued America's health care system. To outside observers, a typical health care expert and reformer may seem a little like the Wizard of Oz-a flustered little man behind the curtain, fiddling with dials and making it up as he goes along. If our health care system is to realize its full potential in the 21st century, we need informed leaders who can restore public confidence with new visions of what is possible for the future.

Building on his nearly ten years with the acclaimed think tank, the Institute for the Future, Morrison shows why structural change within the evolving health care system has the potential to create unprecedented growth and opportunity for everyone in the field. The book is filled with visionary thinking, including resolving the fundamental tensions of cost, quality, access, and security of benefits; selecting the best from health care systems around the globe; learning lessons from other industries; driving change in the future; and applying the five key leadership steps.

Written with the author's unique blend of scholarship and wit, Health Care in the New Millennium provides a concise and easy-to-read synthesis of current health policy and clearly explains how to face the leadership challenges of today's and tomorrow's health care industry.
