Does Healthcare Need Heretic Voices?
I came across this really interesting tweet today from John Sharp quoting Cardinal Health:
Cardinal Health – speed of change, need to "give voice to heretics"
— John Sharp (@JohnSharp)
I think the use of the term heretic is a little inflammatory, but I think that was probably the point. Healthcare has plenty of people arguing for the status quo. Do we need more people that are arguing against it? I think it’s a healthy thing.
In many ways, I look at the various mobile health applications and I see a number of heretics. They are kicking against the medical establishment and many in healthcare don’t like it. How that will play out, I’m not sure, but I find it really interesting. Wha tI do know is that something needs to change.
