Book Description
“The coronavirus pandemic has validated the principles of this book—that we need healthcare with no address, helping people where they are and when they need it,” writes Dr. Stephen K. Klasko in Patient No Longer: Why Healthcare Must Deliver the Care Experience That Consumers Want and Expect. “Telehealth worked. Providing guidance to families worked. Listening worked. Even under our greatest threat since World War II, the principles of using digital medicine to get care out to people turned out to be critical.”
Dr. Klasko and Ryan Donohue explore this evolving delivery model in a fascinating look at the history of patient-centric care and the rise of the healthcare consumer as a powerful new voice. In addition to the compelling reasons why consumer-centric care is so crucial, the authors share how leaders can work to build health systems focused on it. They offer actionable ideas for implementation in individual organizations and explore topics such as:
- The latest research on what matters most to healthcare consumers today
- Leadership skills needed to drive patient-centric initiatives
- New applications of digital health technology and data
- The Picker Institute’s Eight Dimensions of Patient-Centered Care
- Best practices and case studies from leading organizations
