Overview

Break through the chaos that surrounds health care and harness the power to create positive change. That's the message you'll hear loud and clear in the insightful book How Physicians Can Fix Health Care, by innovation expert Chris Trimble. Trimble takes his years of experience studying business innovation and applies them to health care for the first time. He says physicians on the front lines do indeed have the ability to make significant changes that will bring safer, more efficient and better health care to patients. You'll learn how to formulate an innovative idea, solidify it and design a team to deploy it. Trimble cites real-life examples of how small innovations are improving health care across the country and explains how all physicians can achieve similar successes within any health care organization. Health Fork, MD, founding of Doctor's Crossing is one of many health care leaders praising Trimble's groundbreaking book: "At a time when many doctors are considering leaving medicine, Trimble offers a voice of hope and an innovative approach for how doctors can lead the way to a more collaborative, effective, and sustainable system."

Editorial Reviews

A roadmap for physician-innovators … this book simply could not be more timely.”

— Patrick Brophy, MD, Co-Chief Executive Officer, University of Iowa Health System

“Trimble is spot on again. We need to challenge and liberate physician-innovators and their teams to tackle the toughest problems in health care, including the proverbial elephant, costs. Restoring the physician leadership model can help attract and retain top talent and truly transform health care for all.”

— Vivian S. Lee, MD, Chief Executive Officer, University of Utah Health Care

“Trimble understands physicians … the way we are feeling and the obstacles we are facing. This is a clear, practical, and engaging guide to making innovation happen. Trimble’s work has been enormously helpful to me.”

—Eric Isselbacher, MD, Staff Cardiologist and Director of the Healthcare Transformation Lab, Massachusetts General Hospital
