Reviews
"I loved this book. Jonathan Bush is a goggle-eyed radical foaming for revolution in the house of health care-with the crucial, page-turning difference that for years he's actually been delivering on it. His story alone is worth the price of admission. He's driven ambulances in New Orleans, remade child delivery in San Diego, and built an Internet company that is transforming the way people practice medicine. And along the way you'll learn more about the real world of how health care works than should be possible for a book this interesting. Jonathan Bush is a singular new voice in American health care." - Atul Gawande , surgeon, professor, and author of The Checklist Manifesto "This is a compelling, entertaining story-an insider's perspective on American health care by someone who has been closely involved in its reshaping. Few people amass Jonathan Bush's kind of experience or articulate as clearly what lies ahead." - Abraham Verghese , physician and author of Cutting for Stone "Jonathan Bush is not only a brilliant visionary but he walks the talk when it comes to tackling the dysfunctions of our health care system. Reading this book will help you understand why things are as broken as they are and inspire you to be part of the fix." - Regina Herzlinger , Nancy R. McPherson Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School, and author of Who Killed Health Care? America's $2 Trillion Medical Problem-and the Consumer-Driven Cure "Health care has successfully resisted organizational innovation to the detriment of our health and our economy. In Where Does It Hurt? Jonathan Bush gives exciting accounts of current innovation, and irreverently imagines an attainable future in which a vibrant medical marketplace is driven by health entrepreneurs, of which he himself is a prime example. Patients, physicians and policy wonks alike would be well served to take the provocative and illuminating tour." - Jeffrey Flier , MD, dean of Harvard Medical School " Where Does It Hurt? teaches us all that great entrepreneurship does for reform what yeast does for bread. Jonathan Bush has done it, and now he's sharing the recipe." - Governor Mike Leavitt , secretary, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (2005 to 2009) "Jonathan Bush is one of the most charismatic and outspoken people in health care IT. His passion for driving innovation is changing the industry. The tale of disruption in his book offers lessons for us all." - John D. Halamka , MD, chief information officer, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center

Synopsis
A bold new remedy for the sprawling and wasteful health care industry. Where else but the doctor's office do you have to fill out a form on a clipboard? Have you noticed that hospital bills are almost unintelligible, except for the absurdly high dollar amount? Why is it that technology in other industries drives prices down, but in health care it's the reverse? And why, in health care, is the customer so often treated as a mere bystander--and an ignorant one at that? The same American medical establishment that saves lives and performs wondrous miracles is also a $2.7 trillion industry in deep dysfunction. And now, with the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), it is called on to extend full benefits to tens of millions of newly insured. You might think that this would leave us with a bleak choice-- either to devote more of our national budget to health care or to make do with less of it. But there's another path. In this provocative book, Jonathan Bush, cofounder and CEO of athenahealth, calls for a revolution in health care to give customers more choices, freedom, power, and information, and at far lower prices. With humor and a tell-it-likeit- is style, he picks up insights and ideas from his days as an ambulance driver in New Orleans, an army medic, and an entrepreneur launching a birthing start-up in San Diego. In struggling to save that dying business, Bush's team created a software program that eventually became athenahealth, a cloud-based services company that handles electronic medical records, billing, and patient communications for more than fifty thousand medical providers nationwide. Bush calls for disruption of the status quo through new business models, new payment models, and new technologies that give patients more control of their care and enhance the physicianpatient experience. He shows how this is already happening. From birthing centers in Florida to urgent care centers in West Virginia, upstarts are disrupting health care by focusing on efficiency, innovation, and customer service. Bush offers a vision and plan for change while bringing a breakthrough perspective to the debates surrounding Obamacare. You'll learn how: - Well-intended government regulations prop up overpriced incumbents and slow the pace of innovation. - Focused, profit-driven disrupters are chipping away at the dominance of hospitals by offering routine procedures at lower cost. - Scrappy digital start-ups are equipping providers and patients with new apps and technologies to access medical data and take control of care. - Making informed choices about the care we receive and pay for will enable a more humane and satisfying health care system to emerge. Bush's plan calls for Americans not only to demand more from providers but also to accept more responsibility for our health, to weigh risks and make hard choices--in short, to take back control of an industry that is central to our lives and our economy., A bold new remedy for the sprawling and wasteful health care industry. Where else but the doctor's office do you have to fill out a form on a clipboard? Have you noticed that hospital bills are almost unintelligible, except for the absurdly high dollar amount? Why is it that technology in other industries drives prices down, but in health care it's the reverse?
