Digital transformation is the next frontier for medicine and healthcare delivery. How does "math" fit in? How does AI provide the foundation for operational excellence and change? This highly readable book from two unique experts is a must read for healthcare leaders. --Dr. Gary E. Bisbee, Jr., Ph.D., MBA, Co-Founder and Chairman Emeritus, The Health Management Academy, The principles described in this book are fundamental to transforming healthcare operations. Matching unpredictable demand and supply in any asset-intensive industry requires sophisticated predictive and prescriptive algorithms deployed at scale. Others--Fedex, UPS, Airlines, Waze, Amazon--are doing it, and so can we in healthcare! --Dr. Patrick Byrne, MBA, Chairman, Cleveland Clinic Head and Neck Institute, Healthcare leaders interested in digital transformation will benefit from reading this book. We all have to start using the sophisticated predictive and prescriptive models described in it to optimize access and contain costs. --Steve HessChief Information Officer, UCHealth, Denver, Colorado, The concepts shared in this book show how innovative methods can transform healthcare operations in a way that allows the organization to evolve on a comfortable path while experiencing dramatic advancements. --Rebecca Kaul, Chief Innovation Officer, MD Anderson Cancer Center

Synopsis
GETTING A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT SHOULDN'T BE HARDER THAN BOOKING A VACATION The US healthcare system excels in research, innovation, and clinical care, but is failing to keep up with the operational challenges of the digital age. Today's healthcare organizations face immense financial challenges, and their most valuable resources--people, rooms, and equipment--are being used inefficiently. The result? Long wait times for patients, overstressed staff, underused assets, and poor ROI for organizations. Why do health systems struggle with optimization? The fundamental problem is one of matching an unpredictable demand for services with a constrained supply. The math being used to solve this problem is a holdover from the paper-and-pencil era. In Better Healthcare Through Math , authors Mohan Giridharadas and Sanjeev Agrawal show you that there is a better way. Healthcare systems can harness the power of sophisticated, analytics-driven mathematics to optimize the matching of supply and demand. By upgrading to software systems built on better math, they can enable staff to make data-based decisions to flatten peaks of demand and create smoother patient flow., GETTING A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT SHOULDN'T BE HARDER THAN BOOKING A VACATION The US healthcare system excels in research, innovation, and clinical care, but is failing to keep up with the operational challenges of the digital age.
