Partners in Health

My boss - Dr Anthony Shih - is co-author of the chapter "Achieving the Vision: Payment Reform" in the recently published book "Partners in Health", available in Hardcover and Kindle.
Partners in Health: How Physicians and Hospitals can be Accountable Together (J-B Public Health/Heal
"The combination of visionary leadership, knowledge, and superb timing makes this book a winner. Health care is evolving toward collaboration and integration, and this book is essential reading for anyone wishing to change the relationships between hospitals and physicians."—Donald W. Fisher, PhD, president and CEO, the American Medical Group Association
"This book is a must-read for anyone committed to a high-performance health system. It spells out the practical steps that will move us toward an accessible, coordinated, patient-centered system of care. Its recommendations for payment and regulatory reform underscore the urgency of comprehensive health reform if the current misaligned incentives are to be changed to support those on the frontlines in providing the best care with prudent stewardship of resources."—Karen Davis, PhD, president, The Commonwealth Fund
