Few learning
experiences in medicine have fundamentally shaped and inspired me like the
value-based healthcare course at Harvard Business School has.
As trainees, our
perception of and approach to healthcare continues to be shaped. Many of us
enter the profession with altruistic and idealistic motivations that can
unfortunately seem to be an afterthought in the daily grind of the modern
healthcare system. Participating in the course has shown me, however, that we
can and should strive for better for not only our patients but for the future
of medicine.
What was perhaps the most exciting aspect of
the course was the opportunity to study the cases of those who have doggedly
invested in the pursuit of value for patients. Some had participated in this
exact course only a few years prior. Knowing that the concept of value-based
healthcare is being embraced and implemented successfully was truly
inspirational.
