Innovation - Driven Health Care offers a compelling view of important trends in the healthcare industry, from both the MD and consumer perspectives. It discusses innovation, collaboration, particularly with respect to issues in health and healthcare that intersect and the increasing use of technology to reduce costs and improve care and outcomes in healthcare. Chapter 16 in particular focuses on Pfizer Health Solutions and the program Florida: A Healthy State. The book highlights areas of innovation in the delivery of health care:

·         In small practices threatened by the healthcare industry

·         In large group practices

·         In hospital-physician joint ventures

·         In employer health plans

·         In constraining costs and expanding markets

·         And in patients, who are at the helm of the healthcare system

Moments in Leadership: Case Studies in Public Health Policy and Practice focuses on the role of public health leadership in influencing health policy, particularly with respect to issues in health and healthcare that intersect at the boundaries of science, behavior, culture, and society.
