Redefining Health Care: Creating Value-Based Competition on Results. Michael E Porter and Elizabeth Olmsted Teisberg. Boston: Harvard Business School Publishing, 2006. From Border’s website: “The authors argue that participants in the health care system have competed to shift costs, accumulate bargaining power, and restrict services rather than create value for patients. This zero-sum competition takes place at the wrong level -- among health plans, networks, and hospitals -- rather than where it matters most: in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of specific health conditions. Redefining Health Care lays out a framework for redefining health care competition based on patient value. With specific recommendations for hospitals, doctors, health plans, employers, and policy makers, this book shows how to move to a positive-sum competition that will unleash improvements in quality and efficiency.”
