Rescuing Healthcare

A Leadership Prescription to Make Healthcare What We All Want It to Be

About this book

"Bell and Cortese clearly articulate the central importance of leadership to achieving high value, patient-centric health and wellness . . . compelling."—William B. Rouse, PhD, author of Understanding and Managing the Complexity of Healthcare
 
Healthcare in America is wildly inconsistent and uncomfortably close to bankruptcy, and the only way it can be rescued is with leaders in all the different areas of healthcare stepping up with the right kind of leadership. The problem is that they don't realize the importance of their leadership, and even when they do, they don't know how to lead. Rescuing Healthcare shows them (and the rest of us) why it's so important that they do step up, and—the critical ingredient—it shows them how to exercise the right kind of leadership—whatever their role or contribution. And for the rest of us as consumers, it shows us what we should be expecting . . . and demanding. The goal of this book, then, is nothing less than the salvation and transformation of healthcare.
 
"One of America's most eminent medical executives and a highly-regarded thought leader in leadership have given us a masterful overview of healthcare leadership and how to improve it. Rescuing Healthcare gets straight to the point, with a sharp diagnosis of our ills and a clear vision of where healthcare needs to go. Drawing on a lifetime of experience, Dr. Cortese and Antony Bell offer a detailed strategy to unite your organization around a common purpose, improve patient care, and succeed in a value-based environment." —Toby Cosgrove, MD, CEO and President, Cleveland Clinic
